Does anyone know why Apple has not invoked DMCA against jailbreaking? They have, where the DMCA is applicable. The thing is, contrary to popular belief, the DMCA does not give them any sort of right to sue an individual for the act of jailbreaking itself. It is, after all, your phone. But it does come into play when people distribute the hacks to do so, as they involve breaking Apple's copy protections for the express purpose of modifying Apple's copyrighted firmware. By analogy: A publisher does not have the right to stop you from cutting up a book and re-arranging the pages, but they do have the right to stop you from distributing such a book, even in modified form.
