Furthermore, the targets of this insult don't deserve it, because there are real scenarios where "fail closed, for unknown things" is the right policy. It's a matter of tradeoffs. It is of course fine to say that the "fail closed, for unknown things" is the wrong default policy for a mandatory access control system to be enabled by default in Debian. (I would agree.) > security-weenies Seriously, you're repating this offensive language ? Ian. (I have to disclose an interest: I have a PhD in computer security, so maybe I am one of these "weenies"?)
