More than a decade after launching in Europe, the Netherlands company is now selling its repairable phones in the US, starting with the Fairphone (Gen 6+).
Verizon is very protective over their network and always has been. They used CDMA for years just to lock out outside competition amongst other walled garden bullshit. When they moved to GSM they still tried to lock their network to a whitelist of phone IMEIs they control. They do not want you to buy an unlocked phone from a brand they do not get paid by to be put on the whitelist support.

AT&T started using a whitelist too at some point. T-Mobile is the last major carrier left to not care what phone you use.
Its a bribe? I wasnt aware of that. That fucking sucks.
