I was wondering this awhile ago too. There are ways but it's pretty hardcore stuff from what I can tell. It's basically a lost cause at that point. Some solutions involve using $30,000+ laser machines to manipulate the hardware physically and cause glitches in the locking. But even then the devices have self-destruct mechanisms to detect tampering. Not like the phone explodes, but they self-destruct the cryptographic keys needed to unlock the bootloader, and then you're stuck trying to brute force in by guessing keys, which most likely will take literally a million years.

thats pretty aggressive to unlock it, i dont think non-tech saavy people will go for it.

The only way to bypass a forced bootloader lock is to find a bootrom exploit. It's basically like jailbreaking an iPhone or a console at that point.

Note, the iPhone hasn't had a working jailbreak in years. Samsung phones in the US also haven't been able to be unlocked in years.

Android would be even harder because of how fragmented the market is. There are many different phones from many different manufacturers.
