What "most Linux distros" are you talking about?
Ubuntu has Mandatory Access Control in the form of AppArmor (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppArmor). It's switched on with a set of policies on the desktop (do sudo apparmor_status to see) and on the server.
On the mobile side a lot of work has been done to confine individual applications in a manner similar to Android. That's future work that could go into mainstream Linux eventually.
On the traditional server side both RedHat and SUSE have MAC on by default - for them SELinux I believe.
