I've been a security wonk for many years, and the problem I have with SeLinux is that when it makes a decision I disagree with, it's like pulling teeth to change it's mind.
So I sometimes just turn it off

place. I quote one more from the same thread. This one is from Linus:
"I find SELinux to be so irrelevant to my usage that I don't use it at all"Linus is not exactly famous for his ability to understand security concepts. I find the fact your argument is produced by google and cut/paste rather than technical material ... enlightening
But hey if Linus jumped down a volcano would you follow ?
There *are* cases where you want SELinux off - isolated high performance computing clusters for example where you want the absolute minimal overhead but they also usually turn off other junk Fedora inflicts on people by default which is far more pointless - like LVM (unless you are doing crypted fs stuff)
