+Running Homebrew as root is extremely dangerous. As Homebrew does not
+drop privileges on installation you are giving all build scripts full access
+to your system. As a result of the OS X sandbox not handling the root user
+correctly HOMEBREW_NO_SANDBOX has been set so the sandbox will not be used. If
+we have not merged a pull request to add privilege dropping by November 1st
+2016 running Homebrew as root will be disabled. No Homebrew maintainers plan
+to work on this functionality.
