    Obtaining root isn’t jailbreaking, it’s just taking full control of your linux-based system :)

    Jailbreaking is so called because you have to escape the walled garden (jail) of apple products, which is a challenge because they wrote their own code. Not a problem you really have with android to begin with. You don’t even need root for most of what you want to do with android.
