Pod2g Confirms iOS 6, iOS 6.1 Beta 4 Untethered Jailbreak

hypnosec writes "Well known iOS security researcher Pod2g has confirmed that a working untethered iOS 6 jailbreak is ready and would be released as soon as iOS 6.1 GM is released. In an interview with iDigitalTimes, the security researcher has revealed that they are already in possession of a functional untethered iOS 6 and iOS 6.1 beta 4 jailbreak, and the majority of the work has been done by @planetbeing and @pimskeks. '6.0 is jailbroken, 6.1 beta 4 also. Now we are waiting 6.1 to confirm and release,' said the researcher. He said that the jailbreak would have been possible without him as he came into the iOS 6 jailbreak scene at a later stage and provided pointers that pushed the other researchers to the maximum."

    Here's one reason (but not the only one):

    Some of us, having used both, prefer iOS.

    You started well by acknowledging that the top models compete on equal merits and stating your opinion that one could cater to people's needs as well as the other so there's, in your opinion, little reason to choose the more restricted brand.

    Then with that last sentence you turned into a blind religious constipated infantile hater and ruined it all ;)

    Perhaps some people prefer the iOS UI and app selection compared to Android on phone-size devices?
