Will Luca Share His iOS 10 Jailbreak Tool Or Wait For The Latest Apple Patch Before Going Public ? All Hope Still On Pangu?
C. de LacyiOS 10 came, but the jailbreak community wasn't quite ready for it as it rendered the previous jailbreak tool from Pangu shortlived. Will hacker Luca Todesco, who cracked iOS 10, finally be sharing his work to the public?
Also known as qwertyuiop on Twitter, Luca wasn't just able to crack iOS 10 once. He was even able to find a way to make Cydia work flawlessly on the recent 10.0.1 update. This only took him around 24 hours as he claims on his official social media handle.
Talks about Todesco sharing his jailbreak tool is everywhere, but unfortunately, fans and users relying on such speculations and such reports will get their bubbles burst with this one single tweet from the hacker himself:
Why are people still asking me when relees there is no release planned
— qwertyoruiop (@qwertyoruiopz) September 27, 2016
At the moment, Todesco points that there's no real plans of releasing his tool publicly. It would even make more sense if he, instead, submitted the vulnerabilities that he found to Apple. This would be extremely useful, especially against the bug bounty that wasn't completely eradicated yet.
While Todesco have no plans of sharing the tool, a lot of other hackers might have already done the same thing and just keeping quiet about it, which makes it scarier.
With the increasing security threats taking places today, installing any software that hacks iOS could pose various levels of threats according to Apple's statement regarding unauthorized app installation. These could cause instabilities, shortened battery life, disruption of service and worse, security vulnerabilities.
It may be more safe to just patiently wait for an official jailbreak tool from a well-known name like Pangu for the iOS 10 or better yet, find alternatives without having to resort to jailbreaking the device like the ones with listed here.
