May be used to represent a lack of or concerns about privacy and security. May also be used for figurative senses of unlocking, e.g., achievement unlocked.

WhatsApp’s design is silver, its shackle turned to the right, as Samsung’s previously was.

This emoji does not display in page titles on Apple’s Safari web browser, presumably to prevent less reputable sites from pretending to be secure (encrypted using HTTPS).

Unlocked was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 under the name โ€œOpen Lockโ€ and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
