Hi

Dont know if this has been asked before. However I wonder why apple does not prompt you to enter a passcode when it comes to disabling findmyiphone.

For example. If I have my passcode set to be asked every 15 mins. And if my phone is lost or stolen. If a person tries to disable findmyiphone before I get to iCloud.com. Someone could easily disable it. Therefore findmyiphone is useless. Unless it asked the user to enter a passcode to disable it.
 
You can set your iPhone so that to enable/disable functions e.g.. findmyiphone you have to enter the passcode.

I've got it set that way on my 4.
