I guess we now know who is sponsoring these jailbreak guys and why.
- stirlo 10y agoJailbreak teams publish widely and open source (mostly) they are actually the CIA's opponents burning zero days which they would much rather keep to themselves. The CIA would undoubtedly be customers of companies like Vupen and Zerodium though.
