Easy Root, an app available via the Android market that allowed for easy, one-click rooting of the DROID and DROID X (before the FRG01B update, that is), has gone through some updates. It exploited a vulnerability that allows for root access in the Android 2.2 platform, simple as a single click of a button.

But now, according to the app in the market (now only providing updates via “Easy Root Compatibility”), the app has been yanked by Google with not a lot of reason or explanation. Keep your eye here, though, and we’ll keep you updated.
