From the post:

>Sideloading has been a hot topic for the last decade. Most recently, Google has announced further restrictions on the practice in Android. Many hundreds of comment threads have discussed these changes over the years. One point in particular is always made: “I should be able to run whatever code I want on hardware I own”. I agree entirely with this point, but within the context of this discussion it’s moot.

I agree. Muh encryption. Muh encrypted boot loader.

Courts need to rule that if you erase this bullshit or unlock it, that’s fine. This is where cars are going, heated seats? Subscribe? Hack it? No can’t fuck with encryption. Install a fucking switch to turn on heated seat? Fuck you bypassed encryption. Go to jail.
