I thought I had seen something similar to this in the past, but I
can't reproduce it with simple cases:
$ find .
.
./cant-touch-this
find: ./cant-touch-this: Permission denied
./hello-world
./hello-world/are-you-sure
$ find . -name '*'
.
./cant-touch-this
find: ./cant-touch-this: Permission denied
./hello-world
./hello-world/are-you-sure
$ find . -type f
find: ./cant-touch-this: Permission denied
./hello-world/are-you-sure
$ sudo find . -type f
./cant-touch-this/mchammer
./hello-world/are-you-sure
Thanks,
