Sam, I'm guessing but a lot of (non-commercial) folks use an inexpensive "wireless router" with NAT as their "firewall". Besides, the application code is trivial. Probably less than a hundred lines. Potentially s a good teaching moment for using go and how it does http. On the other hand - if this was for a business I'd have to agree with you on using a proper firewall.
