Securing a travel iPhone
As someone in a country with a serious mugging problem and having lost an iPhone already, one of the biggest security flaws I see is being able to power it off without providing any authentication.What is even the point of Find my Phone and all that if anyone can just instantly switch off all the tracking?? You can't even ring your own number after that, and even law enforcement cannot look up the cell tower logs to see where it's been.There should be an option to require a passcode for power-off, and another option to periodically send Find my Phone tracking even when "powered off," via any available network, until the battery dies.EDIT: I agree they can just take out the SIM and we need to be able to force-power-off anyway.. but what can be done to increase the recoverability of these expensive items?
