Can Apple track a Mac or iPhone been marked as Lost and work with the Police side to find it?
When my Mac was stolen from my Car,
I marked the device as lost on Find My and reported to the police station.
I even showed the location of the stolen devices to the Italian Police who receiving the case.
Unfortunately no response or action from the police side.
Then I'm thinking one question:
Can Apple track a Mac or iPhone been marked as Lost and work with the Police side?
Yes it's for sure.
They can do that, they just won't do it.
We all know that Apple devices have to be connected with Apple store and iCloud service.
All apple devices have a unique ID or SN number, such ID will be connected with the device.
So the question will be: Why Apple won't help to prevent Apple devices been reused after it's lost/stolen?
I mean if a lost apple device cannot be reused, and the Police will find the 'new user',
then there will be no market of stealing Apple products.
When there is no market for lost apple devices, then the lost devices could be returned or it won't be stolen from the beginning.
The only reason I can find for Apple is:
More stolen/lost apple devices, more demand on new apple devices purchase!!
Apple, you need to do something, don't do evil.
We lost not just the hardware devices, but all the documents and convenience we should have.
Believe me, if Apple devices are not able to be reused by theft, there will be less criminals.
Most importantly, there will be more loyal buyer for apple products.
Apple, It worth a try.
