True, to an extent. What about those of us who run "rooted," phones? Who really pays that much attention to what you are granting su permissions to? Most people don't. I'm not most people, but as a security professional, just about every cert you take requires agreement to a "code of ethics," which, among other things, will include your agreeing to attempt to safeguard the general public.

I've essentially sworn to try to save people from themselves. Gotta love it.
