Users with such security concersn should disable the screensaver modules that do such in xscreensaver preference if they have such concerns.

If you are in a high security environment locking down a system is the admins/users responsibility not the Distros.

Parabola is a general purpose Distro. Not one aimed at high security enviroments. This request falls outside Parabola's mandate of
ensuring software freedom.
