Well, thanks to social media, we can now see the message that greets a looter powering up their new device: “This device has been disabled and is being tracked,” it says. “Local authorities will be alerted.”

This is scary. Especially from a company that prides itself on individuals' privacy. I know that Apple needs to defend itself but if this type of tracking can be turned-on on thieves, who is to say that they won't turn it on anyone they wish to follow for whatever reason.
