IMHO this is literal computer sabotage and I sincerely hope someone affected will press charges against #Apple and forcing them to either remove "#ActivationLock" or #Unban #iPhone|s they remote-bricked!

Seriously, #Apple preventing people and businesses from #refurbishing should be illegal!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfwy-y5rCoc

And I sincerely hope both @EU_Commission and @Bundesverband will actively go after manufacturers that want to deny people their freedom to actually own their devices as per "1st sale doctrine".

Like it's none of Apple's business if someone chose to get a #refurbished display unless they want to fraudulently sell it as a new device and not a replacement - but that's already covered with fraud.

The dosdude1's video about restoring #Apple destroyed A12Z-based Apple Silicon Developer Transition Kit (DTK) brought up some interesting bits, such as that you can interrogate Apple online service for the device serial number and associated device mac addresses (which then can be used to activate the device once correct values are restored to the SYSCFG). If the devices were physically destroyed and scrapped you'd think Apple would also had removed this information from the online service, effectively making it impossible to reactivate them. I guess there are gaps even in Apple's asinine processes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reQq8fx4D0Q #hardwarehacking #activationlock #partspairing

@millardjk @mikestanley Not at all! #ActivationLock on Mac is exactly like iOS devices. Most larger businesses use an MDM solution so they can unlock the devices at will; otherwise they're locked with the employee's iCloud ID, which can be released in Find My. And if the employee doesn't unlock them Apple can override it with proof of purchase. https://support.apple.com/guide/deployment/activation-lock-depf4ab94ef1/web
Activation Lock on Apple devices

You can use an MDM solution to allow Activation Lock on a supervised device.

@Rmogull And lock+encryption gives peace of mind when devices are stolen. I hate that it's turning Apple devices into e-waste but they'd be even more tempting to thieves if not for #ActivationLock

What's your opinion on these repair shops though? Do they legit have piles of locked not stolen #MacBook and are dumping them like iFixit says or are they likely actually stolen? https://www.ifixit.com/News/71486/working-macbooks-trashed-over-activation-lock
