Time zones are not in effect for users, either; they're in effect for
processes.  A given user's login session, which is a collection of
processes, would typically all be using the same time zone, for
consistency, but this isn't necessary.  They might choose to run two
clocks, one in their local time zone, and one in another time zone,
where a family member lives, or where they're about to take a vacation.

/etc/localtime points to the time zone that a process will use if it
doesn't specify one via the TZ environment variable.  And /etc/timezone
is the legacy version of /etc/localtime.
