Verizon to stop automatic unlocking of phones as FCC ends 60-day unlock rule
FCC waives rule that forced Verizon to unlock phones 60 days after activation.
The Federal Communications Commission is letting Verizon lock phones to its network for longer periods, eliminating a requirement to unlock handsets 60 days after they are activated on its network.
The change will make it harder for people to switch from Verizon to other carriers.
