      Why link to an ad-filled hit-whore website?

      How about straight to the source:

    The complete lack of any signature checking of /system when flashing images with Odin makes rooting Samsungs child's play.

    I have to give Samsung credit - while working with the Exynos platform is a nightmare for a Cyanogenmod device maintainer, their lenient bootloader locking policies are unsurpassed.
