Regarding IOS 7 activation lock. For people who are not early adopter or wealthy, relying on second hand purchase to own an IOS 7 device, has any consideration been given? Online purchases are routine. In good faith, many will now suffer for not knowing
I am part of the second hand market, non early adopter, that's trying to use an IOS 7 device. I just bought an Ipod touch 5th gen and an Iphone 5 with IOS 7 and quickly learn that I've just lost many hundreds of dollars because of the activation lock. Of course, I should have known better...be smarter, etc. Now I have two bricks, basically fancy Apple product that're now junks. With IOS 7 and the activation lock, isn't Apple concerns that they will soon frustrate a lot of new and existing users and will also be known for creating increasing number of junk (brick) devices.
iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.4
