Default Radio locked after disconnecting battery

Whenever I do work on a car I always disconnect the negative battery terminal. I've disconnected the battery on the z several times with no problems. This time when I started
the car after getting everything put barck together, my base radio just says "system secure. Please contact dealer". I can't interact with it at all. Oddly enough, it reconnects to my phone over Bluetooth, but I can't do anything with it.

Do I really have to let the dealership rape my wallet for them to connect their tool for five minutes to reset my radio?

What caused this this time but never before?
