So what about regular watches? Those don't have any technical way to prevent theft?
Neither do "regular" phones so what's your point? I didn't know we were setting the bar so low based on decades old tech, centuries old when it comes to watches. With that kind of thinking, maybe Apple should remove all security features on the iPhone to match those "regular" phones.
This is a new advanced piece of hardware that is trying to change the smart watch game. Activation lock and Find My iPhone should have been no brainers at this point for Apple. I'm not putting my data on a device that can not be secured.
The more I read about the Apple Watch, the more it seems like it was rushed to market, maybe they should have waited another year and worked more of the kinks out.
Data theft is a huge business these days and releasing a device without as much security as possible just seems lazy and a disservice to consumers (this goes to all smart watch manufacturers, not just Apple).
