I don’t like Apple but it’s great that their security is so good when it comes to this.

I don’t have the type of position where that would be needed or considered appropriate. Why should I need to anyhow? A lot of people are missing the point here. Logging into a service (especially one I didn’t want or need but was harassed into doing it) should not unexpectedly be considered proof of ownership.
The scenario wasn’t that during os setup I was asked to login. And I wasn’t prompted with a warning that this could happen. What happened was every time I opened system settings for months it wanted me to login to iCloud and no matter how many times I refused it just kept asking.
Nah - you’re complaining that you “were forced into handing your password to someone else” when there were at least six ways you could have avoided that:
Finally, we release devices like this all the time through our ABM account. It takes 5 days maximum. Your IT team led you up the garden path.
You are bending over backwards to justify absolute garbage practices. I am aware there were literally other ways around this. I was more referring to being forced into a situation where I’d even need to consider this.
Yes, I shouldn’t have used my personal account… however I also should have never expected doing so to tell apple “I own this shit please make sure no one else can use it ever without my permission”. Logging into iCloud should mean “I want to use iCloud”, which btw I NEVER wanted to do. Every time I opened system settings the piece of shit insisted I login to it. That alone is a problem. But I’m sure you’ll justify that one too.
It was a small company, as he said elsewhere, negating your first 4 options, and the last two of blaming the user are equally stupid because Apple can fix this and doesn’t want to. Not everybody has an MDM tool which can set up ownership right for Apple devices - and they should not have to
It’s shameful that you have a bunch of upvotes and he’s getting downvotes
