With-out "unrestricted access" JamochaMUD cannot access your computer's
filesystem, which means that saving any configuration settings, worlds,
or logs cannot be done.

The term "unrestricted access" is a bit leading in that it makes it
sound like JamochaMUD would root your system or something, which is
quite far from the truth.

Agreeing to let JamochaMUD have unrestricted access on your system will
give it the same privileges as any other piece of software that you
would run locally.  Except that you can see the source-code.

I've never tried to run JamochaMUD sandboxed, but that might be an
interesting experiment to see if it could run that way.
