Re: 2 Minds
This is the other side of the coin on the right-to-repair. iPhones are basically worthless to steal as they get remotely locked and are essentially a brick that broadcasts their location to authorities. That said, until fairly recently they could still be dismantled for valuable parts but now that Apple marry most of the expensive components, they’re not really worth stealing either. So while it makes repairing a phone much more expensive, it does make them less nickable (until someone works out how to break the activation lock!)
