Shameful lawsuit.  The feature greatly extended the life of those old phones. 

The author of this story should not have allowed the comments about how this could happen without stating the impossibility of some of them.  If the phone is in a faraday cage or on airplane mode, it is not communicating with phones nearby.  IOS does not have a mesh mode either for anything other than the findmy feature.  And they mention the possibility of running out of power?  Then that is probably what happened.  Someone screwed up in the evidence room.  A charger block was probably an amazon special and broke most likely.

This forum has become a toilet. I don't know why Apple Insider lets such bile be associated with it.

Some of these posts are worthy of flagging. It is one thing to not like someone , another to call an entire group to be degenerates and worse.

I still don't think it's worth it for Apple to get into that market. A Max 8 years before Apple would have to go along with the same old sourcing rules. I don't think it's worth it to get into that market. Maybe Satellite stores like how Apple is in Best Buy stores here in the U.S. That's the most I think Apple should do in that country and that may be even to much. There's so many other issues Apple would have to deal with also.

As long as India can make phones well another source always helps.
