I found a phone AND an ipod

I'm pretty sure federal law dictates dumpster diving is legal.

nope. it's not a federal law. laws like that are rarely federal. it depends on your state

it's not hard to understand. identity theft is when you steal their identity. not when you steal their info

i guess it isn't illegal. this is surprising.

I go garbage picking all the time. If its outside and someones throwing it away and I like it than I'm nabbing it. We've gotten chairs, couches, etc that way.

go ahead and unlock it if you just found it in a recycling bin, that forgeter should've known that you can't recycle electronics in a plain recycling bin.

even if it was a normal recycling bin who cares

[Candy Apple]

how interesting. are you going to unlock it so you can use it? if so, go to the nearest hole and live in it until you die by fire. if not, go to the nearest hole and live in it until you die peacefully of old age. you could even build a nice cottage.

Good find, OP.

Flaming. He's an starfish anyways so he won't be missed.

If you find the person who previously owned it, then I'd try to give it back. If you can't, then I say keep it.

Doesn't even look like flaming. All I got was that he was saying, "Die if you steal phones", but "its cool if you are going to return it". He misunderstood the thread completely.
