Uh, oh, that means you're working on an admin account. If you are using a normal user account, you will be prompted to enter your admin credentials instead.

(You can also force this behaviour on administrator accounts. Search for the registry setting "ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin")

On Windows installs the default user created in a home/pro install is an admin and it never prompts the user to go create a non-admin account for daily use. This actually makes perfect sense in itself (beyond the behavior defaults you mention being backwards).

Notice you ignored setenforce and what it's already a root session.

how is that any different? you're still allowing arbitrary code to run.

Unless you are saying that those who type into the terminal will first |echo the script into a file, verify it, then run?
