Really? I am the exact opposite. Few years ago I would always run a custom firmware on my android phone, now I wouldn't touch a rooted phone with a bargepole. Mostly because none of my bank apps work on rooted phones, but also because CM was always an unstable affair for me - fantastic at the beginning, more and more annoying the longer I use it. The "customization"(which I used once to change some icons) is simply not worth the loss of stability.

you run your devices without any care for all the background datamining, constant analytics, access to your PII, facebook social graph etc.? you oughta'be ashamed of yourself.
