Hardly an expert, but is there any problem with personal data to have
777 permissions ? Even if they are several users on the system, I
suppose they should not be able to access your home folder, so whatever
the permissions of some of the files inside this folder, people wouldn't
see them anyway ?
Easier is probably to just leave everything alone and just call it hands
on experience ;o)
