5 months agoNah - 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:
- you gone to the computer,
- they send the computer to you,
- you remote in to the computer,
- you tell them “suck it, you should have blocked iCloud sign-in with MDM” or, as others mentioned,
- you sign out before handing the computer back or, my favourite,
- don’t sign in to personal accounts on work devices even if they bug you to.
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.
…exactly the kind that discourages 60-something, non-technical family members.
