I don't know about all Apple products but I have a 27 inch IMac and every technical detail is automatically transmitted backwards and forwards to Apple every time that it is switched on. Stuff like serial number, ios version , my isp number, location are all transmitted. So the stuff on this lorry load must all be pretty useless to anyone who obtains it. If someone switches any of this stuff on then that item must give it's identity away....... knock on door.!! Unless you know different. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everything connects automatically. If you type something onto your phone or tablet out on site somewhere it automatically transfers to your Mac or other Apple devices. So when you get back to base or home you can just pop it up and print it or edit and transfer to anywhere. Talk about big brother. But if your all legit and above board you ain't got any worries. One of the blokes in the rifle club has got the lot and it amazed me how he was in a car park and paid for the car park ticket without even getting a ticket, AND when the car park attendant came to his vehicle he already knows that the ticket has beèn paid for via their ticket systems. Perhaps the people who have nicked all this stuff are just going to throw it out and make what they can or they've got some way around this. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All that technology but there will still be a little paki on a market stall that can unlock it all for a tenner 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Meece 1,957 Posted November 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) But it ain't locked. It's more a case of as soon as you light any of this stuff up it's like flying a flag. The system... (Apple) registers it working. Like a submarine surfacing. Your ISP and location are going to show up. You cant disable It because it has to communicate to work.
