Apple reportedly evaluated giving Apple Upgrade buyers with iPhones that came with all their previous iPhone's data preloaded, but that didn't make the final cut. Apple Upgrade is a lease in the US rather than a loan and so it's different to the iPhone Upgrade Program it replaces, but it could have been more different still. In this case, it reportedly applied to users as they reached their second and subsequent years of Apple Upgrade. The report suggests that turning on Advanced Data Protection would prevent Apple being able to do this. Advanced Data Protection is an option for iPhone users, except in the UK.
