This is your desktop environment doing it for you (noticed how it
mounts under /media/joe? Guess what happens if you had set up
another user and "were logged in as" this other user? /media/joe
or rather /media/otheruser? That's it).
Of course the DE doesn't do the mount directly, but relies on
pmount or something similar.
Sorry I can't offer more details: I'm not "in" the intricacies of
desktop environments. For me, they are too intricate and finicky,
therefore I prefer to run without.
I mount my media explicitly.
