Once you stop supporting the hardware or software, you are required to open source everything required for consumers — as well as any competitor — to pickup where you left off and continue development.

You can open source everything and it doesn't matter if you don't provide the keys to unlock it.

You're going to have to proactively provide tools for users to unlock their devices completely.
