hello chat. i have recently come into possession of a stack of 1st generation ipad minis that are activation locked
i sent an email to the organization they belonged to before they got recycled, and am waiting for a response, but in the meantime is there a way to bypass activation lock in device setup? they're ios 9-something and 32bit

the people that the iPads are locked to have gotten back to me
they are willing to activation unlock them! but their apple account's 2fa codes are with someone who left the organization

AMAZING STUFF RIGHT THERE
