How can I get rid of unauthorized MDM?
I have factory reset, changed Apple ID’s, passwords, routers, and modems. I have bought new devices and within in twenty minutes of being home with new device it was locked down.
HELP!!

That is a bug, or complication, in the operating system and the overall design of modern systems. They actually don't use passwords anymore. They use "secure tokens". But it ends up being very confusing.
I experienced this exact problem recently when Apple forcibly upgraded my computer to Sonoma against my consent. My restore from backup didn't work due to corrupt files, so I totally erased the computer and set it up again as a new one.
This was a frustrating and confusing process. I did eventually get my e-mail working again. But it was definitely a situation where I had to do the same thing 3 times in a row before it eventually worked. Don't they say that is the definition of insanity? Well, that equation doesn't mean anything when the whole world's gone mad. I had another alumni account from my university that I lost entirely. I could probably contact them directly and get it back, but I don't really need that account.
But I do understand the frustration of having these things just decide to take over your life one day and your attempts to rationally figure it out and put things back in order simply don't work. Surely, these big companies like Apple and Microsoft could figure out how to logically make these things work? No, they can't.

I would like to screen shot some of the most contacted domains. If that would be ok? Also my phone has been booted and obviously I didn’t do that.
there are a lot of extra open source licenses on my phone now as well. I am unable to stop sharing to home and health apps. I can’t do a complete safety check restart. My phone won’t do a complete factory data wipe. It tells me I don’t have admin permission powers to do that. Also my phone take’s random screen shots, video and audio recordings during the day and well as records and videos every call I make or receive. I am able to sometimes receive and send emails and certain people. Sometimes my phone acess is completely turned off. Some days I won’t be allowed to send and receive text for contacts. My website access can be blocked to certain websites. My home internet has been affected as well, the modem and routers have been changed 4 times in 4 months. Plus more but I am sure u get the point.
I am so completely frustrated with it I can’t breathe so please excuse me, I am not my self these days.
How bout that for proof! Why do I have an account holder? I am a remote work from home mom! I don’t work for a corporation and I certainly haven’t given my permission to be controlled and monitored the way I am.
Omg none believes me. And I freaking know it. It is easier to find on my androids than on iPhone or iPad.
it has over taken my home network as well now. Has total control over every device that’s logged into my router, not modem.
I get a cold call from “HP” this past Friday with caller stating they knew u was having some laptop problems and “HP” was sending me recovery data and driver overnight mail.
Really? Come on now who believes that one??
Me either I keep resetting and changing phones etc I set my phone up with Wi-Fi at wall mart. As soon as I pulled in the driveway my phone changed. I have watched someone on my phone giving commands. Google shut down android . I couldn’t believe it. I better not hear from one more person that I’m loosening my mind , this crap has made me so bitter. That’s not even the half of it.
it has destroyed my home life a thirty year marriage. If it’s not my husband I will forever regret all the accusations but I am not wrong. When you know you know. I trust my instincts and my research. I know where it’s coming from not the why though. I will get to the bottom of this. When I do I hope all the people who accused me of being crazy are sorry. But I AM NOT WRONG
I had currently have the saw issue . People are telling me I’m paranoid but I have proof. I actually watched these people in my information taking pics of them crashing my mac like it was proof they did their job. Go into your google one and all of those apps. I changed my Apple ID as well was on the phone with Apple for like two hours and they saw everything themselves. Within a week they were back in. Mske sure your tv isn’t connected to any apps make sure no one can get your generated codes make sure no one knows anything and see what happens . When I said I was pressing charges that’s when things got even more interesting. Like you I use one server purposely to see when they log in and go in and use safari . They signed in again two nights ago . I have to change my Wi-Fi name and password . Once I disabled my phone from the tv which sucks it was like it got harder for them but I know what you’re dealing with it’s violating and same as you they had Convos recorded that i was on the phone during those times ? If you go into maps it’s even better you can see where they go…start telling people you brought this info to Apple and it’s being investigated and you’re pressing charges watch them get nervous .
If nothing is here, then you are not managed by MDM. You could have a compromised Apple ID. You can follow the instructions for an Emergency Reset.
I found this program in analytics report today. And before you all say it. I already know.
Can you post a picture of the remote management screen?
No, not at this time.
