I own my computer.
With Linux, I have the power to do whatever I want with my computer. If I want to delete a file, linux never questions my competence. It faithfully deletes that file, without any objection, even if I tell it to delete itself with “rm -rf /” (Note: DO NOT RUN THIS!).
There is no “Are you sure…” dialogue for any task less than dangerous. Want to delete a file? Done. Install a program? Done.
Of course this method allows you to destroy your system. But I CAN destroy my own system, because I own it.
