security flags could use extra context

Reported by ja...@imaj.es, Sep 2 2016

Issue description

The security flags which turn on/off webservices which help users could use more context.

"enable phishing and malware protection" - what does that actually do though? can you link to a faq or something that'll tell me, in more detail, what i should expect that feature to give me?

Secondly, the whole advanced expansion is a cheap way out of doing reasonable UX.

Why not have specific custom flag settings which advanced users could do (as it is now), but have a simplified ux that is always visible, which would offer users a simpler option: 

-- Keep me secure, send some data to Google
-- Make me vulnerable but private

? :)

When option 'Enable phishing and malware protection' is set , SSL/malware errors/warnings should be seen. If disabled, errors/warning shouldn't be seen.

The second part seems to be a feature request.Waiting for more inputs from dev

@tkonch: this was more feedback on the material design layout rather than specific functionality.

Might want to add "learn more" links to add additional context
