The US isn’t as bad as some Americans. In Ecuador it’s literally illegal for any business to sell used phones. The reason is to discourage phone theft.
We are aligned Iwas just clarifying the distinction between the two.
Personal property is owned by humans, “private” property is a term that got diluted when corporates were given all of these rights without any “personal” responsibility
Aren’t these things trackable? Don’t phones have an IMEI and can’t they be remote-bricked if stolen?
I mean, police don’t care, but Apple could render these useless if they wanted to.
Generating planet-harming e-waste out of brand new phones to spite thieves who are largely motivated by economic desperation…
What an American idea.

Its really sad :(
🤔and no used phones leave the country??
Well the thieves should be stealing from corporations and not peoples houses. That’s something I can get behind.
Not bricking these devices will just mean that more people do it.
Nice distinction between personal and private property. There is a lesson here folks
I’m not adverse to stealing, just never off people that worked to earn it.
Corps are not people and they should never get the same respect as us shiti organics.
I never said they were. I’m saying I’m all for fraud and stealing from stores but not off someone’s porch or house.

Not completely bricked, but they can be blacklisted from all carriers
