If you’re technical enough to sideload Android apps, you’re probably technical enough to install Graphene too.

If google is gonna ban sideloading, surely they will lock their bootloaders first.

Leaving in the bootloader unlock gives people who want to retain sideloading a place to retreat to that google still ultimately controls. Which is more appealing to a sociopathic corporation than cutting people off entirely
