Actually, thats a good point. ALthough I have no idea if the Chines
government even cares, it would not be hard to slip a little code in

to verify the OS build you are installing.
It also means that the concept of locking phones so that you can't do
anything to them may be obsolete.

But will average joe care? likely not...
