Yes yes yes. I agree completely that those sorts of shenanigans are exactly what our young friend needs to consider.
How this sort of thing works is you sign an onerous contract that, in a general sense, precludes you from ever jailbreaking again since now that you've worked there you have inside information. Then after a couple months they let you go, or they give you some super boring and tedious job so you have to quit in order to prevent from killing yourself. But you're still legally bound by the contract, and the whole thing cost them 1/100 what it would to bring you to court.
- comex 15y agoThe internship is only scheduled to last a few months, and I'm aware that I'll be precluded from jailbreaking... but I was telling the truth when I said I was getting bored; I'd want to move on to something else anyway.
- pooriaazimi 15y agoAny idea what you'll be working on? I'm almost certain they want you to help them fixing security holes, keeping us jailbreakers out, but I can't say I like it much! Personally, I'll keep my fingers crossed that you'd be assigned to UIKit, or sales! ;-)
- josho9 15y agoLaw student here. Still recommend checking your contract extremely carefully. You'd be surprised how restrictive employment contracts can be.
