How does that work? Based on imei perhaps? Does spoofing that not do the trick?

Carrier lock is on the phone, not the network. You need to enter a code to disable it. There are 3rd party services that you give your IMEI and pay, and they have a way of finding the code. I'm not certain on the details.
