Re: [Trisquel-users] Can sudo be removed?

That's... ridiculous. That guy is trolling or intentionally spreading  
disinformation. Sudo is free software; it can't have a "backdoor" without  
being well-known, and such a "backdoor" would have been fixed years ago.

Sudo is a useful tool on multiple-user machines. It allows you to choose  
exactly what special privileges everyone gets, so you can let them do some  
special things without giving them permission to screw everything up. It's  
not particularly useful on single-user machines like PCs, but it doesn't hurt  
on those machines either.
