'essential' means can't be bothered to wait 24 hours (once)?

To do what I want with my own property seems pretty essential to me.

So install a different ROM

And when you do that, you lose access to your bank, because bank apps routinely refuse to run on devices that leave the user in control (e.g. unlocked bootloader, rooted phone). Graphene and similar would be a much more acceptable solution if remote attestation of a locked bootloader were banned.

Essential means to get fucking lost and let me do with the hardware I paid for whatever I want.

Why not wait 3 months just to be safe? Or 3 years?

I paid for my phone.

I have to completely concur that it's probably one step toward an increasingly restrictive final state. Add a few "Are you sure?? You'll brick your phone!!!" warnings, then ID and age-verification mandatory (think of the children!!)

Maybe it's not good idea for our entire civilization to use only two mobile operating systems controlled by companies that only want to make money.

You are missing the part that new 24 hour process was a response to backlash. It was not even in their plan.

Sounds like backlash needs to continue until it's clear that that isn't acceptable either.
