I'm not sure this is correct ... Friends is a technical term referring to trusted peers, whereas friends means what it says - people you actually know.
wdiff to make the change obvious (look for []/{}): Your node is currently running in promiscuous mode. It will connect to Strangers, and this means that anyone can find out that you are running a node. Most attacks are easier, blocking your node (for example at a national firewall) is much easier, and you have no control over who your node connects to. We strongly recommend you get some connections to Friends (trusted nodes run by people you already know); promiscuous mode is only intended as a temporary measure until you are able to just connect to your Friends. If you only connect to your [-friends,-] {+Friends,+} while it may be possible for them to attack you, it is less likely than if your node is exposed to any government agency/other bad guy who wants to connect to it. Note that adding a peer in the Friends section does not help much unless that peer belongs to somebody you actually know (both for routing and security reasons)!
