Oh wait, it already is! Thanks to new DMCA regulations. If we get 100,000 petitions on the White House petition site, Obama has to make a statement about this issue. The good news is that *there are already 88,457 signatures*! The bad news is that *there are only a few days left *to reach the goal. YOU can take a stand against making rooting phones a crime. Register and sign the petition here - http://wh.gov/yA9n. I mean, you want to be more like *Vint Cerf* and *JP Barlow*, right? Well they're on board <http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2013/02/mobile-unlocking-petition/>. For more details, check out this article in the Atlantic <http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2013/01/the-most-ridiculous-law-of-2013-so-far-it-is-now-a-crime-to-unlock-your-smartphone/272552/> At Guardian Project we seek to ensure that everyone is as secure and private as they want to be when using their phones. Attempts at installing cops in our phones are a disservice to human rights the world over. Thanks for listening and doing your part. In solidarity,- Mark P.S.
