    We’ve seen how big tech bends the knee to Trump. What if he told Apple to disable every iPhone due to some made up bullshit state of emergency. This affects everyone’s iPhone not just the leased ones.

      Ah so it’s just “orange man bad” in a topic that has absolutely nothing to do with trump 🙄

      Seems like you don’t realize that workplaces already have the ability to remotely lock/wipe their employees phones and devices. This is just a way for lease providers to do so as well.

      Which is something they already can do, just push an update and they are done. And after they simply go out of the market: nobody will buy their phone anymore.

      But this is something different, here we are talking about something that is not different than reposessing a car if you don’t pay the loan you used to buy it.
