    So I ordered a nexus 7. I want to root it, but When I bought it from google play store it makes you sign up for google wallet. I heard there are exploits hackers can take to steal info if you have your tablet rooted? If I just make a different googelplay account with out CC info and sign in never using an account with my info will I be safe? Or will the tablet come with that info already on it as google's attempt to "personalize" it for me? Thanks to all who reply.

    Yeah. It's like this.

    >Google.com
    >More tab
    >Google Wallet
    >Payment methods

    Your information will be saved in the payment methods tab, simply click "Delete".
