- matt312 15y agoThe author probably could not have gotten an internship with Apple. The one person I heard of Apple hiring like you explain was @comex, who worked on jailbreaks. By hiring @comex, they did 2 things: 1) Put an end to a jailbreaker's work 2) Hired someone to find security holes While this is a pretty neat story, the author probably wouldn't be as valuable for Apple as someone like @comex would be. Here is more information about that hire: http://techcrunch.com/2011/08/26/apple-hires-iphone-hacker-nicholas-allegra-comex/ http://techcrunch.com/2011/08/26/apple-hires-iphone-hacker-n...
