Nobody is what "root" maps to when using NFS without explicitly trusting
root. If you don't have any NFS packages installed, you might not have

First simple page I could find explaining:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/nobody
That has citations to
https://www.kernel.org/doc/ols/2006/ols2006v2-pages-59-72.pdf
"Why NFS Sucks", see section 9 on security (page 60 as numbered, page 10
as seen in PDF) in particular.
