What can you do with old iPhones? (alien.top)

I have lots of old iPhones ( SE 2016, 6, 6s, 6s Plus, 7, 7 Plus) and they're all rotting in my drawer. Can they be used for something fun?

You can purposely mess up government surveillance by tampering with their collected logs. First, log into two devices using the same iCloud account. Then, leave your old iPhone, with your registered SIM, at a different location. After that, connect your other device to WiFi. Messages from your iPhone will be forwarded to this other device, even though you're in a different location.
