long story short switched to verizon from tmobile, upgraded to a pixel 8 pro through verizon directly. been rooting my pixels since the first pixel, hoping to continue. i'm reading on other subs/forums/etc and that some people believe verizon somehow completely prevents a subscriber from unlocking the bootloader, even after the 60 days+phone being paid off completely. Is this true...? I picked up my phone yesterday, so if this is the case I'll just go back to t-mobile or something. buying a pixel phone and not being able to root or unlock the bootloader seems silly to me. thanks.
Yes, that is true. Verizon has not allowed bootloader unlocking in more years than I can remember.
