Apple’s iOS 17.3 introduces Stolen Device Protection to iPhones, which could stop phone thieves from taking over your accounts. Here’s how to enable it right now.

    It does kind of suck though. Those devices are less likely to be stolen but still have wide open access to everything with just a passcode.

    Hopefully support is expanded to other devices.
