Apple Releases Patch For Evasi0n Jailbreak (After It's Used 18 Million Times)

Sparrowvsrevolution writes "Apple has released a new update for iOS that prevents the jailbreak evasi0n released last month. But that hacking tool has already become the most popular jailbreak ever: It's been used to remove the software restrictions on 18.2 million devices in the 43 days between its release and the patch, according to data from Cydia, the app store for jailbroken devices. In its announcement of the update, Apple says it has fixed six bugs and was polite enough to credit the hackers behind evasi0n with finding four of them. At least one of the bugs used by evasi0n remains unpatched, according to David Wang, one of evasi0n's creators. And Wang says that he and his fellow hackers still have bugs in reserve for a new jailbreak, although they plan to keep them secret until the next major release."

You're clearly not a geek or nerd.... well maybe on the lower end of the spectrum. However, you've probably never explored an alternative OS and no, Windows XP doesn't count. Neither does Max OS X. Do you even care to compile the kernel you're using?
