You can jailbreak you iPod and you can restore it via iTunes which removes all the traces of jailbreaking.Hence,your warranty is retained.That's Apple Pie for you.
Man.. I know that. What I wanted to know is wether jailbreaking in itself a legal procedure or not.

1. If yes, why doesnt apple do it themselves; or take an agreement from the user that their devices shouldnt be used for whats not intended. :confused:

2. If no, why are we talking about it here anyway? :p

:? But only thing we are doing is we are not following there EULA. So result is we won't get the warranty and we don't care... that's it. we are not cracking softwares...which is not allowed and is a crime. We are happy with cydia and also you can buy softwares from cydia and use it.

But isnt violating the EULA itself illegal once we have bought the stuff from them. If we buy the iPod from them, we automatically agree to abide by the directions don't we?

Also, isnt jailbreaking like some kinda modification/reverse engineering which infringes certain copyrights that protect various portions of the closed-source iPhone OS? And hence Illegal and liable to legal action if caught? :confused:

Great. :D You wont get that in the appstore isnt it? The iPhone should probably be jailbroken? :neutral:

Nothing to be worried about. There are no cases where such a thing has happened. Not even in the US. For other countries, I guess its no problem at all.

Only for jailbroken devices.

Nah! I aint afraid. :D I have long experiences with forbidden/illegal stuff. I just wanted to know the TRUTH. Legal or Illegal? Because I wanted to have ONE device looking at which I would feel; "yeah, I aint that bad after all". One untouched device. You get it? ;)

^^ Well, hacking/not-hacking are separate things. Whereas what I want to know is whether this is LEGAL or not? Nobody, I mean NOBODY here knows anything about it? :confused:

re: Official iPhone/iPod Touch owners thread

^^ Technically speaking it would be illegal, but I am not 100% sure about it.
