Linux has a simple, but powerful permissions system based on 3 different potential users. The user/owner, anyone in the group, and everyone else on the system. Using those combined with read, write, and execute, it's possible to fine tune who can do what to files and directories on a system. We use the tools chmod and chown in order to make changes, and as a bonus, we learn to make the changes using the octal notation shortcut. It seems mundane, but playing with permissions is actually kinda fun!
