Compare: - annoyed *once* and locker disabled forever vs - device by default with no locker and potential untracked accessclose the lid of a notebook -> lockedSure, you can lock manually. The point is that the default behavior helps more when you forget closing it.Is also the login password an aggressive default?laughable comparisonIt's not. The perception of what it's needed/secure changes in time. No windows desktop had login 15 years ago. Now it's definitely different.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_NT released in July 1993 are 22 years and besides that it *is* because you can't prevent somebody from shoot in his foot
if someone has his notebook on a desk in a cafe and goes to the toilet without close the lid or lock it manually he has lost the game entirely because even a minute is too long and so lock after 5 or 10 minutes don#t really improve security
there are worlds between power on a foreign machine and need to authenticate then force the user to move the mouse all the time to prevent screen locking - have fun watching a video with that stupidWrong example: video player knows how to make activity and not activate the locker. You can watch your movie
does a "tail -f" of the maillog on our company server know it too? does htop know it too? does rdesktop watching a remote session know it too?
