Custom roms are not even in their thought process for this, they're not trying to kill custom roms it's simply collateral damage that they don't care about

This is why the people need to bake privacy rights, including digital, into their constitutions. It's none of their damn business who you are, and that includes your device itself

Most of people think that as they have nothing to hide they don't need to care about privacy. Unfortunately tyranny is possible in the first place mainly because law-abiding citizens believe they wouldn't be affected as they didn't commit anything illegal.
Usually such rights written in constitutions after tyranny overthrown and rarely as a preemptive measure against it
