- mpartel 8y agoBootloader lockdown was practically unheard of for the PC/laptop form factor before Microsoft started doing it for ARM laptops. And and it's not even really standard for phones. Plenty of Android phones have unlockable bootloaders (see LineageOS). I don't think whether one is more evil than Apple/iOS in this regard is a good benchmark.
