I think this is the reason docker on linux requires appending sudo to the command by default. Creating a docker group and adding the user to the docker group to avoid sudo is more of a convenience thing, and the implication seems to be well documented now - https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/ https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/ so if someone sacrificed convenience over security, I think the authors can't do much. Also I think there's no such thing as secure vs non-secure product, instead its levels of security.
