in the 1.5 years since the Paparazzi USB download was created, people
still do not... :-)

There is no operating system worth the title "operating system" (even
Windows) that does allow hardware access without proper rights. For
Windows users this is not clear as Microsoft seems to have failed in
the idea of access rights philosophy and use administrator rights all
the time. Try to install a (proprietary, non standard class) USB driver
without being administrator.
