Order DA 26-43 reads "Adopted: January 12, 2026 Released: January 12, 2026" and "this Order IS EFFECTIVE upon release"; it runs "until such time as the Commission decides on an appropriate industry-wide approach", so it has no end date.[1]The FCC waived the rule forcing Verizon alone among national carriers to unlock phones 60 days after activation, citing handset theft and trafficking; Verizon now follows the CTIA industry code until the FCC sets an industry-wide policy.
