Subject: Re: "Jailpassing" technique for iphones
He didn't really say "they used spirit" -- he said, the same technique.
Which, I presume means, taking advantage of the same flaw. Same
methodology. Not necessarily same tools.
I personally don't consider the same tool, the same 'technique'. It's what
the tool does. But if you do, then it's semantics.
Regardless - I agree with Thor. Good link, as I hadn't seen the book.
