Disable mod_security?

Could mod_security be disabled on my website? All user input is escaped properly.

x10hosting will not allow free-hosing account holders to (individually) disable mod_security at this time
x10hosting runs [ ModSecurity 2 ] - which ignores any and all attempts to modify/disable rules in the file [ .htaccess ]
AND
IMO - x10hosing (Admins) will not 'disabled' [ mod_security ] for a non-upgraded free-hosting account

What 'bunny123' was really asking (we were talking) is to disable the rule that involves throwing a 403 when someone specifies something like '5=3' through user input ($_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE), which is there to prevent "second layer" SQL injections.
In addition, the user would like to remove any rules that would prevent URLs, tags (HTML, JS..), or just words that could end up appearing as SQL statements from being blocked.

What caftpx10 says is true. I wasn't aware mod_security did more than block suspicious input.
