Now, in addition to all the possible email hacking issues I have been posting about, I just got a message from one of my boys that his brother lost his iPhone at school today. Good times.

The phone is turned off.

It does, but the phone is powered off. I put it in lost mode, which means that whoever turns it on will get a message to call my phone number. If I don’t get that in 24 hrs, I’m going to brick the phone.

Ugh... Hopefully it’s actually lost - which would mean that it may turn up?
Did he shut it off before losing it, or maybe the battery died?

Have you considered the Amish lifestyle?

Never spend more than $100 on a kid's phone

Sounds like time for him to realize how expensive these things are, by having to buy one himself. Plenty of adequate new Android phones for around $200, or if that would be too much, refurbs are half of that.

Pretty sure it was shut off. I have activated the lost phone feature, and I will get an alert if somebody powers it up, and a location, assuming it is connected to the internet. For that reason, I am holding off on blocking the phone number. If I hear nothing in 24 hours, I’ll brick it and he gets to mow the lawn for the next 10 years.

That’s looking pretty sweet right now. Do Amish drink bourbon? Because that’s what I really need right now.

He’s getting a $100 used POS for his next phone.

It would have to be an iPhone, since I would restore it from the cloud. But he damn sure ain’t getting a shiny new one. My phone was bought from Swappa.

Has the iPhone SE depreciated to $100 yet?

That’s what he has. I say “has” because he found it. Otherwise, I’d say they’re probably close to $100. I recently bought a 6S for a bit more than $200.
