No, Linux is not Windows. Forget that you ever saw anything with a Microsoft logo on it.
You did put a password in. Even if you chose not to create any users, you were asked the root password during the installation. Assuming you just blindly clicked through it, try username "root" and an empty password.

I think it's debatable, whether the flaw is in the system that gives users freedom or the users that misuse that freedom.

Well...
Sure windows is worse, on some computers you can boot in safe mode, enter administrator WITHOUT a password and bingo!
It's definitely people's faults(bad grammar)
