Then you get the security you asked for!
You CAN set up Linux to boot without a password. But you wouldn’t be clever if you did so!
Never ran any Windows OS (3.1, 95, 98, 98se, XP, Vista) with a password, and never had any problems (except one virus i found and deleted myself) in 10 years of extensive Internet use, for which i thank God. I am the only user and want to use the PC for the Lord’s work, and avoid porno places, where i think much malware comes from.
I wish many Linux distros had less security, so that i could easily get full R+W privileges in NTFS Windows drives or even other Linux drives without trying different suggested scripts.
Don’t seem to have a problem with security running Windows.
And I don’t need to enter a password every time I want to check my hard drives for files.
So what ‘security’ do I have to worry about?
I’m not running a ‘network’ here or ‘server’ either.
I’m not saying Linux is ‘trash’. It’s just not that ‘user friendly’.
If you’re going to set up a system for public use, then it needs to be ‘idiot proof’ and usable by the average ‘joe’.
