From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Making it more difficult to actually break the system is a good thing, insofar as it does not actually restrict the freedoms of the users who know what they are doing. I think the fix introduced by PopOS:
is reasonable, because the user can override the protection if they really feel they need to (and know what they are doing, of course).
