- Spivak 6y agoThis is pretty much the whole legal theory of locked-down devices. Since you own them you're free to whatever you like to the hardware including breaking any locks preventing you from running your own software on them. But the vendor has no obligation to help, or support you in doing this. This is pretty much the whole reason the GPLv3 exists.
