+<h2>Security considerations</h2>
+
+<p>
+Doing everything as root is less than desirable; however, Android seems
+to have prevented ordinary users from doing things such as resolving
+hostnames. When I have time, I'd certainly like to fix this properly, but
+for now, it seems a Debian chroot on Android must be used as root in
+order to be useful.
