Apple's claim that unlocking could damage the iPhone was a lie,
suit charges

A class-action lawsuit targeting Apple Inc. and AT&T Inc., filed last
week in federal court, accuses the companies of illegally conspiring
to tie iPhone customers to the telecom company's wireless network.

The lawsuit, which was filed in court in San Francisco the same day
another was filed in a Sacramento, Calif., state court, slaps the two
companies with six charges, claims that they broke numerous state and
federal laws and regulations, and seeks punitive and other damages in
excess of $2.6 billion.
