I never said to remove it, you can add it optionally on Anaconda. Disk
encryption is probably more important than SELinux,
but it is still an option.
only reinforces the use of SELinux as standard in order to discourage bad practices from third party developers especially
those from gaming industries and to adhere to security policies.
From what David [1]said "Some underlying infrastructure our games rely on is incompatible with SELinux. We are hoping to correct this."
So Steam users should disable SELinux or should stop using Steam, or Valve is going to be full SELinux compatible?
There are hundreds ways that an application (un-intentionally) can do nasty exploitations, SELinux un-aware.
In addition, making it options mean removing one of biggest core features of Fedora as hardened system.
Anyway, I see your (yours, drago01 and Elad) point!
Thanks!
