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.
It’s cellular providers who restrict bootloader locking generally. But you’re right but that would go against the grain as the Pixel series are designed to be the flagship for AOSP
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.
