I'm making that claim on a personal basis. I've never had a device stolen and I know of exactly one such incident with a person I know. I just don't consider it a problem that trumps right to repair and if you do, I hope apple starts potting their devices in epoxy.
- kstrauser 7y agoTwo of my coworkers in the room with me right now have had their phones stolen. I know that's just as anecdotal as your story, but I assure you that phones are stolen. Less so now that activation lock ruins much of their value, thankfully.

- AWildC182 7y agoNever said I don't believe the data, I just think it's irrelevant. If 10 people had their phones stolen out of 10,000 that doesn't justify draconian anti-consumer measures.
- scarface74 7y agoThe consumer can easily deactivate the lock and sell the device. How is it anti consumer?
