I'm on v7 and it's also removed in that version. I blame it on Google's efforts to enforce apps having that new Play store integrity bullshit.
-
App devs should also be blamed
-
v7 in the EU, bootloader unlocking is still an option. Might be an EU thing.
-
Looks like I'm on v6 and it's not here either.

I thought that OEM unlocking was removed years ago? That's why I've not bought Samsung phones since the mid-2010s.
They had a thing that would blow a fuse if you unlocked your phone. Did they get rid of that for a while?

Fyi the "feature" was called KNOX
-
they were not yet blocking it with knox, they were permanently tainting your device with it if you decided to assert your ownership rights

Why is it that this news came so late?! The update to one UI 7 came mounts ago and it did the same thing only i noticed it just now checking the settings. Had been aware I wouldn't have updated, rooted it and put free os in it's place. There must surely have a way to unlock it..?! Seriously fuck them I bought this shit! We the consumers should sue them collectively!!
That's clearly big tech corporates raping us ( individuals) in the ass!
It's an attempt on our freedom of choice. Fuck them all! Fuck their security bullshit, apps comming from fdroid are far more secure then those that come from evils google and samsung app store.
Hell is paved with good intentions! Security my ass!

First age verification, mastercard and visa controlling what people purchase, and now this, there isn't any good news lately.
Hey, at least Hulk Hogan died
The wrong person died! We wanted Trump!
