If apple put some type of hard enough to copy engraving or watermarking on their stuff, that might help a bit, or a QR code that called back to an apple server that verified it's authenticity, then I could ask the person in the mall to show me it before putting it in. Welcome to HN btw, I like your username a lot.
They do that with hardware pairing but everyone moans at them. I'd rather get genuine parts than worry about my inability to put crap parts in!
Thank you. The name was shaming me into ironing a shirt for a formal event :)
