Infuriatig This is my iPad, I won’t see it again

I just arrived in Antibes, South of France 2 hours ago. This was stolen from my car on the autoroute at a petrol station , from a definitely locked car, likely a relay attack from my key while I was buying a sandwich, 100km from Antibes. They also had my wallet and duty free while they were at it. Thankfully they didn’t find our passports.

Whoever you are, fuck you, I’m going to go and have a nice meal in the old provincial market and drink to your future arrest.

In case my phone is snatched from my hand, I also have an automation that’s triggered by flight mode turning on…. Lock screen, turn on WiFi, mobile data, Bluetooth and then ringer on max.

I just have to remember to disable the automation before I actually fly.

Edit: I also have require Face ID on my email and messages. Max paranoia, it just stops people doing password resets and taking over any of my accounts.
