A bit overdramatic, isn't it? Custom ROMs designed for the new firmware revisions still work fine. Only older ROMs with potentially vulnerable bootloader code cause bricking risks.
Give ROM developers a few weeks and you can boot your favourite custom ROMs again.
Not really dramatic IMO. Basically mirrors everything we have seen in other industries like gaming consoles, etc. that have destroyed ownership over time in favor of "service models" instead.
And now governments are starting to take advantage of that loss of control by demanding surveillance tech like chatcontrol and other backdoors.
