I don't like Apple but it's great that their security is so good when it comes to this.

You really earn your "apple simp" tag. You know apple doesn't give a fuck about you, actually.
And I really don't care about your invalidations of what happened to me. If by some chance I did make some other mistake besides using my personal apple account, it's irrelevant. I do not think it should be possible to accidentally opt in to this bullshit. It is a shitty feature to force on every user. And it shouldn't be possible for an employee to render thousands of dollars worth of company hardware useless trash ready for the landfill. It shouldn't be possible intentionally, let alone by accident. If you removed the apple schlong from you mouth for a second you might see my point but you won't.
And it isn’t. Like I said before: Apple will remove the activation lock for the owner of the device. Just provide them proof of purchase.
You can request the unlock here
Ok so if I owned this machine legally but didn't have such proof, I'm sure you'd find a way to call me a fucking idiot for that too right? It would serve me right and apple would be blameless
Yes, you would be an idiot for buying a machine worth thousands of euros and not keeping the invoice. That’s completely unrelated to activation lock.
It you’re a business then it’s double stupid not to keep invoices.
Surprise! Apple simp strikes again!
Buying something legally isn't enough. Apple owns the fucking thing because: security and simps say so
Nevermind that there are plenty of ways you could get into this scenario and even if it only happened once ever, Apple's practice is bullshit, because: security and simps
I truly hope all this gargling some day leads you to accepting something even worse from these pieces of shit and and then it fucks you
Dude, you’re an idiot.
