Logging into my iPod Touch - Jailbreak style :)

I got bored one night, watched a video of a hacker using his Mac to send commands to his iPad via SSH, and decided I wanted to try with my iPod. And here are the results. :) You'll need to zoom in

I've never seen this done on Windows without using PuTTy (SSH command line interface) so I feel slightly proud.

</nerdheaven>

congrats, now don't let apple find out.

Apple can't mess with me about it.

"Jailbreaking actually does not rewrite or remove any code, but actually just adds to the existing code. It places a door where there was none before, but technically, the barriers that Apple had placed do still exist. So it is questionable whether or not the EULA is even being violated."

"You may not copy, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, attempt to derive the source code of, decrypt, modify, or create derivative works of the iPod touch Software"

but isn't adding to the existing code equivalent to modifying the code

It means modifying the existing code

Like changing the code that is already there to something else.

Loop holes. LOL.

Then, is it equivalent to creating a derivative work?

Same code
Just a tiny bit added on.
"...create derivative works of the iPod touch Software"

Right, right...it doesn't say "add" derivative works, just "create"...
