To prevent data leaks in case of Apple devices lost and stolen, Apple developed iCloud Find My iPhone and Activation Lock. Thus, they made the iCloud removal pretty difficult. If your Apple device is stolen, you can simply erase the device on iCloud.com. Afterward, the device will be limited to the Activation Lock screen, which prevents anyone from reactivating the device without your permission.
