I'm surprised we haven't heard more about the increasing difficulty of rooting Android phones. On an open platform I would expect this option to exist in the Settings menu somewhere maybe with a warning that it might void your warranty or crash your phone. I don't think people should be advocating Android as a free/open alternative until this situation is resolved. It's very misleading.
