ASUS is apparently killing the ability to root present and future Zenfones - lemm.ee
TL;DR - ASUS has apparently withdrawn the ability to unlock the bootloader on
its phones. - As per the company’s technical support team, Zenfone 10 and
Zenfone 9 users
My guess is they’re going to slow down the device on new android and block rooting so you can’t install your own OS, also, probably doing a lot of spying on the users.
