From the comments:
Is it me or is it slightly worrying that they seem to have implemented these changes at a client level, meaning that someone could by-pass them with custom software, instead of doing it properly and having the server refuse to send out messages once the phone has been wiped / unregistered?
Surely all of this is a backend thing and should not have any client component at all.
- tolmasky 14y agoA reasonable service would have the list of connected decices available online for you to disable any of the devices at any time (as well as obviously removing a device when it's reported stolen). However knowing apple they'd put it in iTunes instead of making it a website (super useful if you're traveling without your computer!), and more likely they just won't do it all.
