[NBLUG/talk] User groups in linux

[Steve Johnson]

I'm curious, a few years back, it seems all the Linux distros went
from putting everyone into one group (users) and started putting each user
account into its very own group (with the same name as the user).

Anyone know what the reasoning behind this was?  Is it a security issue?
