True story.
*Today, Apple finally let me use my own iPad* (after years as a hostage).
Given all the aqccount information was bogus, I had to literally show them
a government issued ID card (how's that for privacy) to unlock my own iPad!
Note my account information (login/passwd) never changed!
Note I never logged out of the account so that never changed either.

This is false.
True story.
*Today, Apple finally let me use my own iPad* (after years as a hostage).
Hence, this is also false.

You're not telling the whole story.

The _only_ thing that changed was Apple _forces_ periodically logging into their mothership tracking servers - which - for years - I refused to do.
The problem was that Apple _forces_ you to log into iOS periodically.
If you don't do that - Apple _locks_ you out of being able to log in.

So you only have 3 chances to check in, then you need to provide LEGAL DETAILS? Do they care if you're in a bad signal spot?

do you want screenshots and images as proof Apple does both those things?
You know I'm not of low IQ ignorant & uneducated like all the iKooks are.

The screenshots won't actually prove anything other than Arlen's
(Wally's) incompetence and determination to make shit up as part of his years-long troll. But then we all know this (except for the extremely gullible candy eater) because we've seen them before.

Do you really think I offered to show the proof and then that I wouldn't? Only an iKook would do something that obviously stupid.
It's bait.
I was waiting for the iKooks to make fools out of themselves.
Which is what they're doing by brazenly denying every truth about Apple.
Just like I waited for Snit & Jolly Roger & Alan Baker to do it over here:

<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/misc.phone.mobile.iphone/PZuec56EWB0>
These Apple apologists _hate_ the truth about Apple products.
They _hate_ what Apple is because Apple isn't what they _thought_ it was.
<https://youtu.be/7QaABa6DFIo> iKooks can't even see the fatal flaw
In this case they _hate_ that the AppleID is required where if you don't
log into the Apple mothership tracking servers, Apple disables the account!
Which means you're logged into Apple mothership tracking servers every day of your life - and - most Apple apps won't work without you logging in.
*That means there isn't any privacy ever possible on any Apple device*

Actually, I kind of agree. Not to be rude, but you didn't post the screenshots about the tracking servers. The wifi thing is extremely
annoying (especially since they removed the hidden cellular info app)
but can you post the stuff about the logging in?

There was a cool Easter egg in iOS where you could reach a hidden
cellular information app by dialing a special number. Among other
things, it could change the bars icon to numbers until you rebooted,
which was extremely useful and more descriptive, and had tons of useful
info. iOS 14 ruined it, removing the bars icon and arbitrarily locking
out useful info, COMPLETELY gimping the cool feature. At least on my
phone, it only displays about 4 different stats that are completely
useless. https://www.macrumors.com/2020/07/27/ios-14-redesigned-field-test-mode/
