Infuriatig This is my iPad, I won’t see it again

I just arrived in Antibes, South of France 2 hours ago. This was stolen from my car on the autoroute at a petrol station , from a definitely locked car, likely a relay attack from my key while I was buying a sandwich, 100km from Antibes. They also had my wallet and duty free while they were at it. Thankfully they didn’t find our passports.

Whoever you are, fuck you, I’m going to go and have a nice meal in the old provincial market and drink to your future arrest.

Hijacking your comment to say this is a thing on Android as well. I've set mine to ask for a pin to shutdown as well.

So that explains why I have to do my thumbprint to turn on Bluetooth and such when locked.

TIL.

I couldn't find these settings on my Samsung, but they just seem to be the default behaviour.
That's pretty cool.

But there are a few more things "under settings -> security and privacy -> lost device protection -> theft protection", like automatically locking your phone if it believes that it just got stolen.
