When you are under an administrator's dominion, *you* must assume the
they know your password.

(Somewhat in the same vein, if you are running a virtual machine, *you*
must assume the owner of the host computer has root access to your
virtual machine. By extension, *you* must assume the government
officials of the physical jurisdiction of the host computer have root
access to your virtual machine.)
