    I would not get your hopes up. The last I heard the rumor said that you would only be able to side load on an iPhone if it was activated on a European carrier

      Yeah we’ll see how far it goes. I’m in Europe so if I do end up switching to iPhone I’d be able to benefit from it. But then who knows what other limitation they implement lol.

      That said it seems like other non-EU countries are going to follow suit so maybe it will go further than just the EU even if not immediately, like a domino effect. Or maybe this is just wishful thinking haha.

        Fair enough. I’m just saying from apple I’d expect nothing more but barely passing the definition malicious compliance.
