That's absolutely the opposite of how most of EU operates. See every single EU banking application. You can't run on rooted Android. Yes, EU absolutely should focus of their own tech first and foremost.

- MaxikCZ 1y agoyou could argue about anything that it isn't the same as everything else.
- hdra 1y agois that because of a regulation? coz where I live there is no such regulation, but banks still checks for root because of the support load concern
- NewJazz 1y agoThere's a difference between checking for root and checking for non default operating systems.
