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

.

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
