The move to block everyone who has rooted their Android device has obviously angered some users, mainly because not everyone roots their device for piracy purposes, which seems to be what Google is implying here. Many will root their Android smartphone or tablet to remove the pre-loaded software that comes with it, or to customize the user interface. There are others who will use rooting for piracy, however, and it seems like Google in this case doesn't want to pick out who's rooting their device for what.
What do you think about this move? Right or wrong? Are you affected by it?
