Yeah, I wonder if Apple is not correctly de-authorising and fully de-registering the device that was signed into an Apple ID

I can understand the locally deleted photo resurfacing bug… but the remote iCloud photo issue puzzles me.

Yeah, how this could happen puzzles me. 

I would think that Apple resets iPhone and iPad by deleting the key that is used to encrypt user data after a user signs out of their Apple ID and resets their device. 

If user data is available after Erase All Content and Settings, it would be disturbing

You mean deleted stuff isn't really deleted?! 😮

Oops! 📱 Deleting photos but they come back? iOS 17.5 got some magic tricks up its sleeve! 😅
