As for the article, I agree that this isn't something your average person will even KNOW about much less care about

You obviously have some inner frustrations that need professional help. Funny how you don't post your own country's name.
For you guys, yes this is a big deal! But, then again most of regular smartphone won't care. Does the majority of cellphone users actually understand or know what bootloader is and do?
AnonD-168288, 18 Jan 2014Carriers are thieves. Never buy their contract garbage. Buy the phone upfront unlocked.Good thing T-Mobile doesn't do contracts anymore

looks like it will remain illegal in the us to unlock even an imported device and looking at some of the stupid ideas floating around,just owning an old unused unlocked phone will get you at least a years jail time !!!

stay classy Sony!
MisterCats, 18 Jan 2014This is not news. Even the Xperia P had a set of models which weren't allowed a bootloader unlock.I should clarify that there were also a fair amount of Xperia Ps that were granted unlock permission via Sony. You just have to hope - should you get a Z1S - that you get one that's unlockable.

good job t mobile. good job. people were just rooting and unlocking Paid feature like internet sharing which is imo stealing.
"The request to make the bootloader unlockable was apparently at T-Mobile's request." So.. Sony didn't deliver?
