Apple makes jailbreaking that little bit harder, developers claim

Software and hardware giant Apple is trying to stop users from jailbreaking in their latest iOS 5 release, a group of developers has claimed.

According to the iPhone Dev Team, which regularly releases software packages that allows users to “jailbreak” their devices, the new version of the software will make it harder for users to go back to earlier versions of the software.

This can happen when users try out new software, and then go back to a jailbroken version of earlier software.

“Although it’s always been just a matter of time before Apple started doing this (they’ve always done this with the BBTicket), it’s still a significant move on Apple’s part,” the team says on its blog.

“They’ve stepped up their game.”
