Apple’s Mac security is so good, it’s sending used M1 MacBooks to the scrap heap

Disable "Find My" in iCloud settings and it works as normal.

You will likely get a little bit of Herd Immunity because Apple devices are known to be miserable to steal.

But otherwise it will work as you expect, just add some Filevault for FDE.

If you're advocating to remove these features for the rest of us, then as an Apple user: no thanks.

Not at all. They obviously need to be better documented or changed though since so many legitimate resales are being affected.
