I checked, I didn't know but if you reside in Canada or in the states they are hardware blocked so its literally impossible to hack the device and unlock the bootloader. Thats only for the snapdragon chips not for the exynos ones. So yes don't buy samsung phone anymore.

I have a s24 here and the last update to One Ui 7 removed the bootloader unlocking option in dev mode. But that was mounts ago and no one talked about it back then so they did it hidden in the dark. Disgusting. See by your self and confirm it.

Why is it that this news came so late?! The update to one UI 7 came mounts ago and it did the same thing only i noticed it just now checking the settings. Had been aware I wouldn't have updated, rooted it and put free os in it's place. There must surely have a way to unlock it..?! Seriously fuck them I bought this shit! We the consumers should sue them collectively!!

That's clearly big tech corporates raping us ( individuals) in the ass!

It's an attempt on our freedom of choice. Fuck them all! Fuck their security bullshit, apps comming from fdroid are far more secure then those that come from evils google and samsung app store.

Hell is paved with good intentions! Security my ass!
