What does one do with a stolen MacBook, since you can't just wipe it and reactivate on a different account? Sell for parts?


The same thing done with stolen iOS devices; end up in Shenzen or Varanasi in a "might-be-used-for-parts" bin., until sufficient harrasment/social engineering of the original owner has failed. Then it goes into the "used-for-parts" bin.
