Comment on ASUS is apparently killing the ability to root present and future Zenfones

My EU S9+ (Exynos chip) is running a custom Android 13 rom without flaws. A lot of Samsung phones can be unlocked. Seems US models (Snapdragon) are the ones that can't be unlocked, few exceptions. Most other countries have the Exynos models and are perfectly unlockable.

i think this might be related to samsung knox and its efuse, once set not really being able to be undone and that stuff
