How was this not already a thing? These seem like quite basic features if you want to stop people from using stolen phones. From what I can tell online, it seems rather trivial for thieves to bypass FRP in the current incantation of the system.

I do wonder what will happen if your Google account gets banned, though. I can’t find much about it online. Some older posts suggest that only having the email address and password is enough, but these days you can log in to Google without ever entering a password, and there’s no way Google will just send your password to a new phone.
