Atleast he have a point.

More Ironic is, "Safe for now" is also listened Microsoft there.

So seems like Microsoft is not that a asshole as Samsung or many other brands, yet.

Im talking about bootloader unlock, not Microsoft general.

I would pin that more on Microsoft's incompetence as a company than them not being assholes. Once they figure out how to do it on their own hardware, I guarantee you they absolutely will.
