My problem with the Execution Policy is that it's useless in practice since it doesn't actually prevent anything (so it annoys me every time). What was the motivation for adding it since it's not a real security feature? If it actually prevented executing stuff full stop it would be cool. The signed script concept is cool... I wish I could do that with Python. Was it just to prevent accidental script execution? |

It is ABSOLUTELY NOT a security mechanism. That is why we we support this:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
I wanted to make it:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy DoAnythingBecauseTExecutionPolicyIsNOTASecurityFeature
But the team didn't like that. (I should have overruled them on that one :-) ).
