ISTR that the default KDE setup does not activate the screensavers. It

actively change the defaults and not have any enforced site policy to

If this is true, it does make the issue somewhat less severe. I have not
seen a conclusive test. The user who encountered the screensaver didn't
think he had changed it, but I guess he might have forgotten. Hence the
formulation in the original bug report (emphasis *not* added):
"I *think* KDE's default setting for new users is to randomize
screensavers; but even if it isn't, it is very easy for an
experimenting user to flip this setting on, unaware of the 'risks'
of running the web collage screensaver.
And apparently from the Fedora links (see top post in this thread) the
random screensaver is default in their kde setup. But, if Debian's kde
team indeed has made the design decision to not have any default
screensaver at all (why?), then, sure, it is nice to see that at least
some reconfiguration is needed. But I still think it is way too easy to
switch this on by mistake.
