In the country report Apple explains that the high number of device requests is due to investigation of stolen devices.
- Zak 6y agoThat's a bit surprising given Germany's overall low crime rate. I wonder if one of these is true: * German police put an unusual level of effort into locating stolen devices * Many mobile devices stolen in other countries end up in Germany * Germany has a high rate of phone theft despite low crime overall
- IfOnlyYouKnew 6y agoIt's almost certainly the first. Or, more specifically, not "an unusual level of effort", but having a system and/or just deciding to include such requests as standard procedure for thefts. I'm somewhat surprised, tbh, as I was under the impression that petty theft just isn't actively investigated because it's neither much of a problem, nor economical to do so.
