TC for iOS

Post by *robinsiebler »

I see there is a version of TC for Android. Are there any plans for an iOS version?

I agree it could come in handy on jailbroken iOS devices.
However, I strongly doubt whether it would be worth it to create an iOS port, if only because of the relatively low number of jailbreakers.
What's in a signature?

Can you plan and execute it a.s.a.p.
Android users do have an App, so iOS users should also have one.

Jailbreaking a device alters code that is copyrighted by Apple and thus represents a criminal offense under international copyright law ("protection of individual creations").

If you jailbreak your device, that is your business and responsibility. You lose warranty on your device and Apple can deny services or even operation as they see fit. Tracking down and fully prosecuting single individuals however is too expensive, hence nothing more happens (yet!).

Ghisler however would be committing economical suicide if he wrote a program that could only be used on such a device - Apple would sue his butt because he is not a single individual/private person (he owns a company, hence that is a completely different legal matter).

It may be the responsibility of a device user to JAILBREAK, then INSTALL and USE his software, but Christian would be liable for having CREATED it in the first place, simply because that is "support of known criminal intent", the same law base that applied for many previous court cases, e.g. "Sony vs. AHEAD (NERO)" or more recently "MPAA vs. Kim Dotcom" as well as "RIAA vs. Kim Dotcom".

What a nonsense story in relation to TC.
Ghisler should nothing do with jailbreak or whatever. He just should create a TC app that will work at iOS. If a user has a jailbroken iPad than that is his/her responsibilty. The ony fact is that with TC you can do more at a jailbroken system, but again that is up to the user.

elroy,
So basically there should be a TC for iOS that wouldn't be able to do anything useful unless the device was jailbroken?

Dont jump info details. Just a TC that fully works at iOS, so without any limitations. Users will see themselves what TC does at their own iOS engine. If it is jailbroken TC will do a lot more then, that has nothing to do with TC but is due to Apple limitations.

elroy,
Well, what do you mean by "fully works"? Since each application has its own sandbox on iOS, for example you wouldn't be able to copy / delete / rename any files without a jailbreak.

I mean with fully works that there are no limitations at TC side. If there are any limitations than it is due to Apple, whether it is jaibroken or not.
