That shows that anyone can traverse the /media directory to get to the
USB drives below it.

What I didn't notice was that you gave me the permissions for the USB
drive directory ( I asked for 'ls -l /media', you cd'ed into /media,ran
'ls -l' and gave me the permissions of the USB drive directory)

So can you know give me the output of 'getfacl /media/douglas-ti'
