This is more an indication that the problem is being solved at the wrong level of abstraction. The problem is that phone companies are handing out loans with no way to enforce collateral and without tying to some real persons credit. Being able to install your own OS on a phone is orthogonal to being able to use it as a secure collateral.

I agree you should be able to install whatever os you want once it's paid for as well, but I was under the impression that's a manufacturer thing not a carrier thing.
