Let's be real here. Folks running Linux as thier desktop have a high chance of knowing what they are actually doing. Folks with rooted android phones have a high chance of having watched a 12 year old tell them how to root thier phone on TicTok. Which of these groups is participating in the more risky activity?

The last time I rooted my phone, I used a sketchy app I downloaded from megaupload (man, I'm getting old) that may or may not have given that phone superherpes. You are not wrong.
