Network World reports that the API, which was released in June as part of a mobile device management (MDM) bundle for iOS 4.0, has been disabled in iOS 4.2, leaving perplexed vendors to question why. The API had previously allowed third-party MDM applications, such as AirWatch or Sybase’s Afaria, to check for unauthorized modifications to the system files, author John Cox wrote.
O explicatie neoficiala suna cam asa: acest API oferea firmelor respective acces la fisierele de sistem ale iOS iar Apple are o politica destul de stricta cu privire la aceste practici. Din fericire pentru noi, acum verificarea unui telefon pentru a vedea daca a fost jailbroken sau nu a devenit foarte greoaie, daca nu imposibila. Guvernul SUA a legalizat jailbreak-ul insa Apple refuza in continuare sa valideze garantia celor care fac jailbreak asa ca va recomand sa NU mergeti cu un telefon jailbroken pentru a il lasa “in garantie”.
