This is because under new rules that were issued by the U.S. government, jailbreaking the iPad is now a violation of Digital Millennium Copyright Act. This came into law on the 28th of October 2012. You will remember back in 2010 iPhone owners breathed a sigh of relief when it was ruled that jailbreaking smartphones was perfectly legal under the DMCA. This is still the case but the updated list of exemptions explicitly excludes tablets, a category of devices that the government found to be too �broad and ill-defined� to allow their owners free reign when using them. So from now, it is illegal to jailbreak the iPad or any other tablet device.4 This really doesn�t make any sense. You are free to jailbreak your iPhone but you can�t run the same jailbreaking tool on a larger device running the same operating system. You can access Cydia on your iPhone but you can�t do it on a screen that is a few inches bigger. It really is bizarre and staring from January 2013, it will be illegal to unlock new smartphones for the purpose of switching carriers. Unlocking older devices will still be fine though. When the news of this broke iOS jailbreak developer MuscleNerd expressed concern about it on Twitter. He stated that unlocking is no longer an explicit DMCA exemption, neither is jailbreaking iPads. No exemption = illegal. We are sure that developers like MuscleNerd are not happy about this news because it means they will have to be a lot more cautious about building new jailbreak tools for iOS. Tools like Redsn0w will still be able to jailbreak iPhones but the developers may have to add something to ensure that they won�t work on iPads or include some fine print about using them on iPads. An untethered jailbreak for iOS 6 hasn�t yet been released so we will have to wait and see if these new laws will have any impact on what the jailbreak community is working on.

Redsn0w which is compiled by the iPhone Dev team has now reached version 0.9.11 and allows users to jailbreak iOS 5.1.1. The iPhone Dev Team have responded very quickly to the new iOS 5.1.1 release and the updates for Redsn0w have been arriving very quickly lately even though no new jailbreaks or iOS versions have arrived. The Redsn0w jailbreak is still a tethered jailbreak solution and is limited to A4 devices which are the iPhone 4, iPad 1, iPod Touch 4 and 3G and the iPhone 3G. If you are looking to jailbreak iPhone 4 then this could be the solution for you. There were some problems for users such as the HDR not performing properly when the camera was initiated by the lock screen button and AirPlay video playback and Safari bookmark syncing was also causes problems. These issues have all disappeared after downloading and installing iOS 5.1.1. As far as a potential untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1.1 goes, we are still waiting to hear from I0n1c and Pod2g who are working on this. Those who are running the new 3rd generation iPad will be the keenest to see if a jailbreak is on its way. We will of course keep everyone updated as news reaches us here. For the moment though, if you are looking to jailbreak iPhone 4 and don�t mind a tethered jailbreak then the new version of Redsn0w is just what you need.
