FWIW, the reason is that Leap 15.3 now uses the SLES 15 SP3 kernel directly, and that is locked down in this regard.
I fear Tumbleweed is different to that.
Perhaps we can also enable it for Tumbleweed?
For the record, this was already discussed in bsc#1157066 after the value had been changed by accident. We reverted the change (in Tumbleweed) but only because the restriction was added by accident rather than as a conscious decision. My take from the bugzilla discussion was that nobody really cares too much.
As I already wrote: I personally don't care too much which default is chosen, but personally I prefer some consistency across different openSUSE installations ;-) (in my case, I'd probably just add the sysctl to disable the added security feature to my usual post-install routine :-) I was just surprised when I found out that I couldn't use dmesg (debian style) on Leap, while I use it all the time on Factory. -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman
