    if you purchased the phone it should not be legal for ATT to lock the phone as you paid for it full price.

      The sim lock idea is so if you get a contract you can’t run off with the phone, if you payed it fully u should be able to unlock it

    This is why you should always get an unlocked version of a phone directly from the manufacturer (Apple or Samsung, although they also got the carrier versions as well), so you won't have to go thru the headaches of getting it unlocked or unlinked from the carrier like this beautiful woman is describing 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

    • @Dan_Hazard

      It shouldn't, but it might not receive proper updates, though android phones might suffer from that more than iphones, so it shouldn't be a security risk

    • @shaunwolvin6025
      @shaunwolvin6025 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      "Lock" in this situation is unlocking the ability to use other providers. Your vulnerabilities are going to be there regardless of your provider if you find the wrong web page or allow an intruder in by installing malware on accident. Anti-virus protection and vpn for public wifi will help with security vulnerability as well as making sure your phones OS is up to date by visiting the manufacturer website from month to month if you switch providers on a device.

    I bought my Motorola from Motorola's website. It is unlocked. It was $100 off MSRP and less than the cheapest price I saw on Amazon. My previous phone I bought also unlocked. The best thing is they don't have the carrier's bloatware on them.
