Oh shit. I didn't know they did that. I've been hunting for an ios 17 phone (jailbreak). Sucks they can force you to upgrade.

I think they're about to find out you can't.

I'm guessing the logic is "Oh but you see it's out of support we can't guaranteeeeee it will still call 000"

It might work on an old as hell model that actually has a 3g antennae, but the router patch was put in an IOS that predates my fucking phone so good fucking luck claiming that shit.

Fight them to the fucking end!

A few days ago an A11 and A12 boot exploit was found, so maybe that has them spooked.

It's not their place to be spooked though. "Does this phone as sold support 4g provider hopping for 000" is where their concerns should fucking end.
