> Apple need to create a system where stolen phones can be reported to them, Apple can then contact the owner/verify they are stolen. And then add them to a stolen list and disable calling/apps on those phones. And display an overlay on the screen THIS PHONE IS STOLEN.
Why would I want to give a third party the ability to brick my phone? If Apple has that power, then a disgruntled Apple employee can use that power and a government can compel Apple to use that power.
My computing devices are my computing devices. Only I should have the ability to do anything to them.
