Again, I consider it to be totally futile to try to convince the makers

from the bug report I made about their misunderstanding of what
"disabled" means.
Could you please provide a link to that?
Lee´s comments like this completely prove to me that Lee does not want any
change from status quo.
As he so far I read here refuses any and all suggestions to *act* towards
change. I may have missed something here as I didn´t do myself the harm to
read every post of every systemd related thread here, so if I did, mea culpa.
But from what I read so far, Lee don´t want change. He prefers to put his
energy into complaining about status quo instead. That leaves no energy for
facilitating change.
Change is certainly needed when any pimple face kid can edit and hide
his doings from a text log with nano. I think the change is necessary to
harden up our systems. Otherwise, Microsoft will become the only secure
server OS, as they don't mind hiding things at all.
Yes, it is a work in progress, but I think the main goal is signed
binaries that discourage the Black Hats ...at least for awhile. What is
telling is that no one is talking about that. Linux does indeed run the
majority of the web servers, so consider that if every major Linux
Distro is working in concert for a change, there has to be compelling
reasons behind it, and that we may not be privy to their reasonings for
security's sake. The Net has been proven to be as secure as Swiss Cheese
lately, and that makes Linux look very bad, if not half-assed.
