My understanding is that the filter *software* will be enabled for all
wikis. The default *setting* for that software will be to display all
images, and then any individual user can choose their own settings
apart from that default.

"All Wikimedia content loads on all user browsers by default. The
feature is activated only after all content has been loaded, and then
only when specifically requested by a user."

(A comparison: user email is enabled on all wikis. But users have to
individually turn it on for it to work.)
