Apple activate the lock function to reduce the incidence of theft in the big city iPhone

New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman (Eric Schneiderman) said that Apple introduced in iOS 7 system activates the lock function to reduce the incidence of theft of the iPhone in New York, London and San Francisco.

Schneiderman said in an interview with the New York Times : "The introduction of the destruction switch has obviously affected the behavior of smartphone thieves.If a smartphone can be canceled like a credit card, then theft of a smartphone is only equivalent to stole a piece of paperweight "

Officials at the San Francisco Police Department said the iPhone theft dropped 38% in the six months following the launch of the feature, relative to the six months prior to the activation of the lock feature. While the iPhone theft in London was down 24% over the same period.

In the first 5 months of 2014, the number of theft related to Apple devices dropped by 19% year-on-year.

Since the launch of smartphones, the incidence of theft has been on the rise. Thieves can easily steal $ 200 to $ 300 worth of equipment, reset the equipment, and resell it. In fact, the New York City Police Department launched the "crackdown on theft of Apple devices" in 2012, and iPhone users can register devices.

Activation of the lock feature allows users to remotely remove the contents of the device or lock the phone, the introduction of this feature eventually reduces the incidence of smart phone theft.

Apple is not the only company that incorporates anti-theft measures in smartphones. California recently passed a law requiring smartphones sold in the state to integrate anti-theft features. Microsoft is currently developing this feature in the Windows Phone system. (Translation: Victoria gold)
