and selinux has nothing to do with monitoring or controlling stuff
arbitrarily without your control.So your "big brother" stuff is just
false.  Even if you dont want PAM in fedora you still have the pam
libraries linked to all the relevant utilities. since neither pam nor
selinux libraries occupy space you can just disable selinux and not
bother about it. I dont see a problem here
