But that follows generally from Stallman's attitude toward security on systems you use -- users should be able to do anything. It's as stupid on Fedora systems as it was on MIT's DEC-20s. Maybe *much* more idiotic today than it was then. With Linux PC prices running neck and neck with the price of a nice dinner for two (although headed in opposite directions ;-), anybody[1] can have root. Footnotes: [1] Well, anybody employed to bang on keyboards for a company big enough to care about who has root on personal workstations can afford to have root.
