By now, most adults have a small cemetary’s worth of obsolete, broken or otherwise abandoned tech. (Well, if you’re not “device-hoarding,” that is.)

But have you ever wondered if you did a good enough job fully off-loading your private info from an outgoing device? 

Turns out, Apple has a way you can be super sure that your Apple ID is no longer associated with devices you aren’t using.

This is beneficial because it, obviously, keeps a random device that isn’t one you use day-to-day from being able to access your account, receive notifications, two-factor authentication codes, messages or make purchases in the App Store, per Apple Support.

It can also prevent anyone from syncing or merging your data or otherwise accessing things that belong to you like your camera roll, notes........
