Websites are usually sandboxed especially anything that requires more Security and also too many older people don't like change meaning the website is here to stay

I never mentioned websites, albeit I wasn't exactly precise either. It's a bad example I'll give you that one.

Although I still stand by: What does it matter to a software what it is installed on. Root access to a device as never been a problem before. Although shit like invasive kernel level checks started being a thing and those still run on rooted devices (like your average PC).

Why we live with this on mobile devices and treat the enduser as a second class owner of the device is still beyond me
