Phone unlocking bill clears US House, next step is president's signature | PCWorld:



 "“It took 19 months of activism and advocacy, but we’re finally very close to consumers regaining the right to unlock the phones they’ve legally bought,” said Sina Khanifar, who organized an online petition that kicked off the push to have the Library of Congress decision overturned. The petition attracted more than 114,000 signatures on the White House’s “We The People” site. In its response to the petition, the Obama administration called for the legalization of cell phone unlocking."
