'Root' in the sense of stuff, ruin, break, destroy, fuck, whatever.

that's not what root means.
but even using your meaning, it still makes no sense.
Unfortunately your vernacular appears somewhat limited.

i'm not the one using the wrong words to describe something, which even
if you used the correct words, still makes no sense.
So you don't think unleashing the wherewithal to every Tom Dick and
Harry to attempt to repair their own phones will likely result in an
increase in the number of (insert appropriate word of your choice here
if you are vocabulary-challenged, or particular) phones that will likely
be replaced with new ones ?

'Root' in the sense of stuff, ruin, break, destroy, fuck, whatever.In computerish, root usually means to install malware in the root
directory or bootstrap section of the boot media.

And not only Australia. You could be forgiven for not know a colloquial usage, but could have figured it out from the context.
Well, the context here is technical. I also interpreted "rooting a
phone" as gaining root access or installing some rootkit or other boot software.

Well, the context here is technical. I also interpreted "rooting ayep. given the context, that's the correct interpretation of 'root',
phone" as gaining root access or installing some rootkit or other boot software.
which for android, is a well known term. on iphones, it's called jailbreaking, although they're sometimes used interchangeably.

Root for me will always be the 'master' or start/first directory of any OS.
Any other root is a vegetable or where a tree comes from.
Anything else is a distortaion that foreigners place on our words.

Anything else is a distortaion that foreigners place on our words."Our words" ! Great coming from a culture that thrives of misspelling, mis-connotation, mis-pronunciation, and other misuse of words and
grammar of the English language.
Most of which evolved with ignorance
being the driving force. ANd most don't even realise the differences !
For example - the rest of the English-speaking world doesn't use 'honk'
for 'wank or masturbate. But at least we do understand your usage.
