A:

Only carriers can block an IMEI, and they do so on an individaul carrier basis. There are no global IMEI blacklists and Apple has no legal say.

My Carrier (Three in the UK) say that because I bought the handset from Apple only they can block the handset. According to this post Apple say only the carrier can block the handset. If both statements are true then if you buy a handset from Apple it is less secure as it can not be blocked?
