Summary: What right?


Why do administrators have (or believe they do) a Right to read any file
on a disk? Is this security? Is this space management?  Does a building
administrator have a right to go through my briefcase because it rests on 
*his* floor?  What make "Greg"'s disk different?  I've run machines, I've 
snooped, but it's snooping, not administration.  There's no need to review
the user's files (*not* just no time).  If users make your job rough there
are other ways of effecting a change.  Just cause the corporation says it's
policy don't make it justifiable.
