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."

Really, what is better about iOS compared to Android on a similar high end phone like the GSIII? Maps are the same, Gmail app is the same, browsers are pretty similar and you have a choice of several (not just skins) in Android. Both have voice control and search. Android has apps for pretty much everything iOS does. I suppose maybe there are some iOS games that have not been ported (and vice-versa).

Let's face it, most people text, tweet and take pictures of their food with their smartphones. Some like to play Angry Birds or My Little Pony. Their choice of iPhone 5 or Android phone is largely down to what their friends use and how much of a douchbag hipster they are. Well, that and old people who think smartphone = iPhone.
