Jailbreaking to Become Illegal Again this Year

Apple was always against the jailbreaking and unlocking. Jailbreaking allows iOS device users to enjoy the freedom from the restrictions applied by Apple. United States government has declared jailbreaking and unlocking legal on 26th July, 2010. It was an unforgettable day for the jailbreaking community. From that day, jailbreak lovers have been jailbreaking their devices to enjoy the freedom. The only restriction to this law was that jailbreaking should not break the copyright laws of Apple. Jailbreaking exemption to the DMCA will be expired in this year, so the jailbreaking may become illegal again this year. In order to renew this exemption, Electronic Frontier Foundation has filed a request with the Copyright Office in the last month. Now Electronic Frontier Foundation is asking jailbreak lovers to submit their electronic voice petition against the law in order to keep the jailbreaking legal.
