I think the answer is C, even though I first thought D. The reason I changed my mind is because at the end they also mention enabling new features, which sideloading doesn't necessarily let you do. Jailbreaking does.

Selected Answer: C
While side loading could allow a user to install software from unofficial sources, the key part of the question is about installing software and enabling new features that aren’t part of the default software. Jailbreaking goes beyond just installing unauthorized apps — it gives the user deeper access to the device, allowing new features and system modifications that aren't possible with side loading alone.

It's either Jailbreaking(Apple) or Rooting (Android). Both deal with not having access to the device's operating system. Since Rooting is not an option, the answer is Jailbreaking.

Sideloading can also allow the installation of unauthorized apps, but jailbreaking typically provides deeper access to the system for more extensive modifications. So i will go for C
