    Making it illegal to lock bootloaders would make each device community-maintainable.

      Yes! That would be the best. We should have access to our hardware. And just like most things you want to keep around for a long time (e.g. cars) you will have to tinker with it to keep it running smoothly into old age.

      I hope you mean, always make it possible to unlock the bootloader offline (to not be dependent on them). There are good security reasons to have it locked by default.

        Yes. No more of that unlock code nonsense. Even Fairphone has an online bootloader unlocking process. I hate it.
