Network carriers T-Mobile and AT&T released their response to the rule this week. The proposal would require carriers to unlock phones with 60 days of activation, even if under contract and not paid off.

Gee, I sure love paying for a phone that can’t be moved from my draconian cell phone network,” said no one ever. But that appears to be the sentiment echoed by American networks AT&T and T-Mobile in response to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
