iPhone Jailbreak becomes Legal

Good news finally for all of us. New government rules in the US will allow iPhone users to unlock, or "jailbreak," their phones without violating the law. The amendments to the 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act will allow users to run third-party applications on their iPhones that have not been approved by Apple. Apple isn't happy at all with this new rules made by the government, stating that the running of unauthorized programmes on the popular mobile device could lead to potential problems with the smartphone. Consumers can now unlock other mobile phones to run third party applications and to enable the devices to work with multiple carriers.
