Hi Ryan,

Is an interesting feature and for sure it will be useful for many people
(include me and I think in speakers with demos). But I need to ask
somethings that I can't understand at all. It says on the page that
activating this feature will erase my data information.

I mean, that is a bad point for a useful feature. What is the security
reason to erase my data after enable this? Other question is, there is a
possibility to "unroot" my device after I rooted it? A way to get my device
unrooted? Other button maybe to do it, or the same button to revert the
changes?

The root could be a word confusing for people at first. The moment when I
saw that button I though "Yes, I will root and update my device". Root my
device (# access in the shell).

Regards,
Gio
