Unlocking Cellphones Becomes Illegal Saturday in the U.S

thinksquad:

The clock to unlock a new mobile phone is running out.

In October 2012, the Librarian of Congress, who determines exemptions to a strict anti-hacking law called the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), decided that unlocking cellphones would no longer be allowed. But the librarian provided a 90-day window during which people could still buy a phone and unlock it. That window closes on Jan. 26.

Another dumbass fucking law pushed for by the giant corporations to ensure that the people have no way out of their totalitarian business models.
