Would that be different when you are the owner on the constuctor-based
system? I don't think so.

It will be much more difficult for the machine owner, and impossible
for the administrator (root in UNIX). So it is different.

With the (opaque) constructor based system you can write a loader that
is downloaded by the user, executes in opaque storage, verifies that,
and downloads the actual program into its opaque storage.

Thanks
