I install alternative firmware, so no sale for you.
This is talking about carrier locked phones, not locked bootloaders.
How does that work? Based on imei perhaps? Does spoofing that not do the trick?
Carrier lock is on the phone, not the network. You need to enter a code to disable it. There are 3rd party services that you give your IMEI and pay, and they have a way of finding the code. I'm not certain on the details.
