@postmarketOS @fsfe Also worth noting the EU page for implementing said policy if it opens for third round of feedback at some point:

Not sure what the current "Commission adoption: Planned for Fourth quarter 2022" means in practice. Maybe @EU_Commission can elaborate?

@postmarketOS @fsfe @EU_Commission I'm personally very eager to unlock the bootloader of my #Nokia #HMDGlobal phone that is currently marked as "impossible" here:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootloader_unlocking

Didn't know this impossibility at the point of purchase, I would have liked a mark indicating that on the box. The other Sony Xperia 10 III that I have bootloader unlocked doesn't compare well to the Nokia 8.3 5G.

@postmarketOS @fsfe @EU_Commission I'm Finnish and very proud of Nokia and HMD Global but I have wondered about their strong stance on #sustainability and #CircularEconomy in ads while simultaneously not allowing bootloader unlocking to extend the lifespan of the device.
