Jailbreaking your iPad will be illegal in 2013! [VID]

Today Matt discusses the strange legal status of iPad jailbreaking which, after January 2013, will be illegal. This is confusing because iPhone jailbreaks are still permitted by law.

So it's legal if you don't copyright from it.

Jailbreaking and pirating are completely different things. True one opens door for the other, but so does the internet open the full door to piracy.

It all determines what you're using jail breaks for(customization, modding games, making it international friendly) but stealing/counterfeiting/copy right and cheating no sir way should it be legal then.

Illegal how? If you get caught with a jailbroken iPad you go to jail? Under what law did they do this? Some kind of patriot act?

Why are Android users so bloody dumb? This is NOT an Apple issue but a govt ruling. If you cant read, ask someone. Oh and this applies to ALL devices, including Android.

At the end of the video he said "I'm more for an open system." Android is an open system. I am not dumb just stating a fact. @Guest911

 ChrisKuhner  Guest911 What he means is he'd like IOS to be a more opened system, not to switch to Android.

 ChrisKuhner  Guest911 By the way, we all would.

More proof Apple has tremendous contempt for their customers... 

Kiss my what? Were I to be so inclined as to wast money on an iAnything, It would be mine. I'll do whatever I please to it. Lets ban aftermarket car stuff too while we're at it, all that stuff detracts from the original intent and design.

So if I jailbreak an iPad bought before 2013 and keep it jailbroken in 2013..will that be illegal ??

I think because the ruling was only for mobile devices platforms and not the tablets
