Yes, that's my understanding. A normal user cannot do this. (And of course, an attacker shouldn't not control a local user in the first place.)

Physical access is also a risk, but physical access trumps everything.

Thanks for the answer. Unless my dog learns how to code I think I'm safe from anyone getting physical access

As a hacker imma start teaching dogs to code as part of my breakin process, sorry bud

Ah, so the next Air Bud movie will be what, Hack Bud?
"There's nothing in the specifications that says that a dog can't have admin access."
"Nothing but 'net!"
