imagine for a moment how valuable new cars would be if you could restrict the supply of the used car market by mandatory recycling when the first owner buys a new vehicle.
Apple benefits significantly at least two ways;
1. Increasing overall demand for both new and used (unlocked) Mac Books by restricting supply.
2. Used unlocked Mac books will have a better resale value on the aftermarket thus continuing the folklore that Apple products retain their value for longer.
This begs the question… how much would a used Mac book cost if Activation Lock didn’t exist?
What is the true market price of a used Mac book? Or Apple Stock?

“Stepping reflex: This reflex is also called the walking or dance reflex because a baby appears to take steps or dance when held upright with his or her feet touching a solid surface. This reflex lasts about 2 months.”
