Older gen macbooks MDM locks etc.

Hi guys. What is fastest way to check if a1466, a1502, a1398 etc is not MDM or other management or locks? When buying a board, to not get future problems?

I don't believe there is a publicly available resource, unless you know someone who has access to Apple's GSX network. I seem to recall Apple had a iCloud checker for iPads/iPhones a few years back, but it was being exploited by China to reprogram iPads. They'd use the existing serial number and alter a few numbers to see if it was valid. It was quickly closed down.

I usually use a serial number off a donor board if I encounter this problem.
