I get some doubts here regarding privacy. In GNU/Linux or any other UNIX, the default file permissions are 755, which means that anybody who logs into that system can read/execute any of our files. This means that there is no data privacy by default, unless we change the umask ? Or am I wrong ? I feel that OSS's concern is more about data ownership than about data privacy. -- Thank you Balachandran Sivakumar Arise Awake and stop not till the goal is reached.
