ZDNet: *I asked Apple for all my data. Here's what was sent back*
now do that with google.
Even you should be well aware the iOS device is almost worthless if the key >> apps (such as the default SMS/MMS messenger app & App Store) are disabled.
nothing is disabled.
Many key apps, including the App Store & the default text messenger are
disabled by Apple unilaterally if you do NOT periodically log into the
Apple tracking servers.
that is false. nothing is disabled.
at most, you might need to provide your password again.
third party apps, which are outside of apple's control, can either save
a token to maintain authentication (or save the password which is a bad
idea but some do it), or they can require logging in each time, as is
the case with banking apps.
If you don't know that basic fact of the requirement to log into Apple
tracking servers, then you don't know the first thing about iOS.
as someone who has written ios apps, i know far more about ios than
you'll ever know.
you couldn't even get android sample code to work.
But this thread isn't about iOS - this thread is to ask if Apple can
unilaterally lock you out of the functionality of the device simply by NOT >> logging periodically into Apple tracking servers - why can't Microsoft?
1. If you don't log into the iCloud, you can't use the key iOS apps.
that's false.
2. If you don't log into the Apple servers, you can't download iOS apps.
obviously. same for google and microsoft, from their respective stores.
3. Apple tracks you by maintaining a TREMENDOUS amount of tracking data.
it's not 'tremendous' and it's nowhere near as much as google and
facebook.
Even you should be well aware the iOS device is almost worthless if the key
apps (such as the default SMS/MMS messenger app & App Store) are disabled.
nothing is disabled.
Almost nothing works unless you log into the mothership tracking server.
Yes, I know he is a mental case,
understatement of the century.
the problem 'arlen' has is that he has no idea what his password
actually is, and worse, he used a disposable email fort the apple id,
which means he has no way to reset the password.
HINT: While I have the correct login/password, that doesn't matter.

Is there even a _single_ person on this newsgroup with adult cognition?
While I have the correct login/password, that doesn't even matter, moron. <https://i.postimg.cc/8k3GQyj4/appleid09.jpg> Apple tracks your activity
*You can't fathom the FACT Apple _requires_ it is the point - you moron* <https://i.postimg.cc/nrFHSvby/appleid11.jpg> Login is REQUIRED!
You _hate_ how iOS works so badly that you can't fathom there is a logical difference between Apple _REQUIRING_ a login/password and whether or not
you give Apple that login/password to log into what Apple requires you do.
Every time you fabricate that I don't know the login/password it proves you are simply making up any imaginary excuse you can for how iOS truly works.
HINT: If Apple never asked... I wouldn't need to provide it (you moron).
HINT: While I have the correct login/password, that doesn't matter.
if that were true, you could easily log in so it can complete the
update process, thereby resolving this particular problem.

You either don't know how iOS works, nospam... or you _hate_ how it works. Pick one.
I told you many times the whole point of NOT logging into Apple tracking servers is to _test_ what happens if you never log into them.
You've never done that.
I have.
*The fact Apple _requires_ you to log into their servers is the point.*

You can't be that ignorant that you don't _know_ this simple fact, nospam. *So you must _hate_ that fact about Apple tracking you on their servers*
Otherwise why do you deny what only a fool (or moron) could possibly deny?
If you simply want to use the phone as it is, you don't ever need to log in.
