Malware will be the first software using that option.

That's why I said the user has to explicitly accept that.

[HexDecOctBin]

Who do you think downloads and runs malware? Users.

[hexomancer]

By the same argument we should prevents the users from running any program at all because it might be malware.

[Am4TIfIsER0ppos]

That is indeed what many people want! Look at people defending "app stores" as being for the users' own good, and sometimes everyone else's.

[HexDecOctBin]

No, but we shouldn't treat user's freedom as an anti-virus mechanism. Pretending that user acceptance will help in preventing malwares is extremely naive.
