The holiday shopping season is already kicking off for some folks, and some companies. Apple, for instance, has officially launched its holiday efforts for 2021, which includes a nice new addition to the offerings for customers who are looking to buy some new Apple-branded gear this holiday season.

Apple would very much like to keep tabs on the repair process for all of its devices. For some, that's a bonus because it means that the company who makes the devices can also fix them.

However, some see it as a way for Apple to keep an iron grip on something it doesn't want out of its control. Both are probably true.

Considering it sells products all over the globe, Apple has to contend with local regulations and laws in order to do that successfully. Or at all. Which means, while it may institute some new rules for its business practice in one region, that might not be possible in another. Like bundling wired headphones with new iPhones.
Earlier this month, Apple began selling a brand new iPhone Leather Wallet with MagSafe. This accessory is a lot like the previous version of the leather wallet, except for one thing: Find My support. It's built right into the wallet, making it possible to track it with the Find My app and network.
