Exploiting the iPhone 4
I finally created a hackernews account after lurking for years just to write this. Thanks for taking the time to capture what (for many) was a mystical black box for years. I have distinct memories of being super nervous whilst jailbreaking my iPod 4G on iOS 4, wondering what all the scrolling terminal messages meant. Then, doing it for my mates over school lunch, worrying that I might unintentionally screw up their phone and be responsible for a few hundred dollars worth of 'bricked' technology lol.<p>In a way, all those years later, that 'magic' of breaking through Apple's walls and running custom code is what enticed me to get into programming. I have immense gratitude to all involved.
