iOS 5 Untethered Jailbreak Absinthe: Should You Jailbreak Your A5 Device?
Do you like this story?
[1] The user can copy any files to and from the device without any restriction and without needing to agree to iTunes license agreement.
[2] The user can build and run software from alternate sources and not be confined by the offerings in Apple App Store.
[3] The user can install useful network services such as sshd (secure remote login) and VNC server (screen sharing), which Apple doesn't allow in non-jailbroken devices.
[4] The user can learn more about his device by examining the entire file system of the device and customize it.
[5] The user can also do FaceTime video chat over 3G (with a non-jailbroken device, user can only do FaceTime video chat over WiFi).
However, jailbreaking a device is fraught with risks too:
[1] It is easier for a hacker to hack into a jailbroken device.
[2] Tampering with your jailbroken device could result in "bricking" it. "Bricking" means rendering the device unusable and it would need a complete wipe and restore to make it work again.
[3] Installing the jailbreak tool renders the Apple warranty void. Which means Apple is no longer obliged to repair your device in case it gets damaged or malfunctions.
[4] Though jailbroken devices can access wider range of apps, yet, the devices are likely to come across and be affected by malicious software. For instance, the only know iPhone viruses - Ikee and Duh - were created for jailbroken devices.
[5] The jailbreak procedure can be a little risky at times, because if there's a misstep, you can lose all the data on your device. So it's paramount importance that you backup your device before you jeailbreak it.
