What's the use? Unless you make Apple give the money back...
From the article, it isn't just banning the sale of iPhone 16, but also make iPhone sold to customer non operational. I don't know how they manage to do it, but that is ridiculous. Customer shouldn't be punished because Apple didn't fulfill it's commitment.
I could not find such a claim in the article. The only technical information is about issuing IMEIs, the rest is about legality. Where did they say they can and do brick iPhones?
They didn't, yet I don't think wrong to infer iPhone 16 aren't operable when they specifically say an operating iPhone is illegal.
Yes, it is a bad infer. I appoligize.
