    If they are going to restrict sideloading, they’ll probably restrict bootloader unlocking too. In the future, just make sure you research the bootloader unlockablility before buying a phone, because the next pixel might be locked.

      Curious where did you hear about that info on the next gen pixel? I’m running graphene so this will probably affect future me.

        Oh, it’s just a hypothetical since we’re talking about a scenario where Google becomes evil. Google probably isn’t gonna lock the Pixel bootloader any time soon. I mean unless they get an incompetent CEO like spaz.
