Apple to nuke unlocked iPhones with next update

sachin_kothari · 25-09-2007, 08:11 PM

Apple is playing hardball with the unlocked iPhone movement.

In a terse statement, Apple said “many of the unauthorized iPhone unlocking programs available on the Internet cause irreparable damage to the iPhone’s software, which will likely result in the modified iPhone becoming permanently inoperable when a future Apple-supplied iPhone software update is installed.”
