Many manufacturers lock the bootloader. All this is is a control, to keep you using the ROM that was meant for the phone and to void the warranty if you do want it unlocked.
If you want to mess with the phone, okay they will allow the unlock, but then the warranty is voided, whereas previously it was impossible to know who messed with their phone and who didn't. It's usually the customer that's the dishonest one after they've hard bricked their phone.
I see no problem with this *****if**** they make the unlock easier. That's the only thing in question here for myself. It should not be some 1 month process, that's bull. Anyways, the custom ROM all have some problems with them, so I have no interest in unlocking it anyways, but they still should make the process simple and painless for those who do want to tinker.
