"Activation Lock is a great feature coming with every iOS device that has Find My iPhone enabled. This security feature prevents anyone from activating your phone without having access to your Apple ID or password in case they found or stole your device."

My thoughts :

I've read lots of not so good experiences of people having issues with buying a used iPhone / iPad only to realise that a spec called Activation Lock exists after buying one of these Apple devices ,and then the hassle of getting the original owner to de activate it ensues.

So I thought I'd share this really good write up from idownloadblog.
