ipod-touch-iphone-jailbreakApple have officially started their battle against the jaibreaking community which grows every day. They have posted a new job section on their website which is clearly aimed at making the jailbreak a more dificult process trying to put people off jailbreaking their devices.

Some of you may be wondering why Apple are so keen on stopping users jailbreak their devices. It is purely that the piracy of applications and games from the AppStore is skyrocketing (one app had a piracy rate of %95). Because of the simplicity of the jailbreaing tool it allows pretty much anyone to jailbreak their device and take advantage of all the cracked app circulating the internet.

The new job that was posted on Apple’s website is called the ‘iPhone OS Platform Security Manager’ and as ModMyI says, aka ‘jailbreaking cop’.

It was always known that Apple have been trying to stop jailbreaking (even tried to make it illegal but failed) but it was only know when they have officially posted some information which clearly shows they are trying to stop jailbreaking for ever
