i wish there was some way to "register" it in a way to insure you have control of it (locking the data and files by finger print) and regardless of who has it, make it so only you can use it.

...and a way to make sure it cannot be reactivated by anyone else besides the "register'd" user.

You can render a cell useless with the IMEI number if it gets stolen..
