i've never understood comments saying jailbreaking is no longer needed, particularly among technical people (it comes up in every single story about jailbreaking across the web). jailbreaking gives you root access to your mobile computer, which means you actually own and control it, not some corporation. one thing you can do after jailbreaking is install a real firewall on the device so you can control what information passes into and out of it. that's a real boon to privacy (it's not perfect secrecy of course).
