Teach your rooted Android phones to lie to apps about whether it's rooted

I love this short blog post because in Australia root also means fuck. eg It sorta reads to me :
Teach your fucked Android phones to lie to apps about whether it’s fucked — There’s a funny paradox in fucking your Android phone. Once you take total control over your phone, some apps refuse to run, because they’re trying to do something that treats you as untrusted. Now there’s a utility called Fuckcloak that lets you tell your fucked phone to lie to apps about whether it is fucked. It’s both long overdue and a neat demonstration of what it means to be fuck on a computer
