Sure but if a malicious user is going to request access to someone's iCloud, they can probably also access their emails and delete this one.
Reminds me of how when I sign into my Gmail from another computer, it sends me an email saying "alert! someone signed in from this computer!" which I could immediately delete if I was a hacker. Seems useless to me.
- glhaynes 8y agoMany (I'd guess most, but I have nothing but anecdotal experience to base it on) people have a non-Apple-hosted email account tied to their Apple ID. Sure, in some cases if someone's iCloud account is compromised, their non-Apple email account is compromised, too, but in plenty they aren't.
