Every phone I've ever owned has been GSM and unlocked. Don't be such an idiot.

You can buy both, they're just not shoved down consumer's fat faces

In America people who sell things produced them instead of stealing them.

Verizon iPhones come unlocked from the store, you can use them on any carrier (in the US at least) without needing them to be unlocked
Many mom and pop (read: indian) phone shops also sell unlocked phones, but theyre usually overpriced chink ones

You can buy both.
However if you walk into a phone store they are going to shove the vendor version in your face, claim they don't sell the unlocked version or that it's out of stock, or will charge you a lot more more for it.

Right now if you want to skip the bullshit in the US, you buy the unlocked version online and the sim-card from your provider.

Dell is the only US company that offers an alternate OS that is sold in common electronic stores. However these alts are never on display, you have to ask for them.
All other computers will be running the latest Windows shit by default.
