Thanks for your quick response. I had to search what Activation Lock does, lol. Looks like it’s to protect your Mac from being used if stolen? I do have FileVault on.
Even if I barely go outside with my Mac, that Activation Lock feature does seem to be reassuring. I wonder if it’s wise to remove my Apple ID and create a new one without my actual info.
This one has my personal data incl my past purchase a long time ago, so technically there’s a trace of my identity in there. What do you think?
