Title says most of it. Spin electric scooters exited the Seattle market and abandoned their scooters all over the city and apparently they have a pi 4 in them!

    Probably, who is gonna come after you? The company has decided it is too expensive to repossess them.

      in Germany it would count as theft and destroying of property of others even if it’s abandoned.

        Technically it’s theft in the US too, but the owner doesn’t exist anymore so no one’s going after you (assuming cops don’t see you)

      In practice, I doubt that anyone is going to care, but the company just not picking then up doesn’t mean that nobody has ownership of them. I mean, the company’s creditors could theoretically get ahold of them.
