The US Department of Justice and 16 state and district attorneys general accused Apple of operating an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market in a new antitrust lawsuit. The DOJ and states are accusing Apple of driving up prices for consumers and developers at the expense of making users more reliant on its iPhones.

    I am well aware but you can’t unlock the boot loader without having a phone carrier unlocked.

      It’s been a while since I did it, but every single time I’ve unlocked a bootloader it’s been on a carrier-locked device. I’d usualy do it to remove carrier bloat.

        Carrier Unlocking is required before a phone can be bootloader unlocked, at least on my Pixel 8.
