With AFS we have to decide whether to allow the world to read the entire
top  level of a home directory, or to always require the username and
password for  each login. At the moment I've chosen the latter, since
the former requires  vigilance on the part of the user that I'm not
comfortable with counting on.

FWIW, we choose the exact opposite option (world readable home directory)
for the exact same reason (lack of confidence in the vigilance of users).

So did we, decades ago, and not just for AFS.
