Imminent Demise of Jailbreaking as Apple Starts Seeding Public Beta 4 of iOS 10.3.2?

It seems unlikely that Luca Todesco will finalize the Yalu102 jailbreak tool nor Team Pangu will ever release a cracked version of iOS 10.2, further indicating that jailbreaking could be dead soon. And Apple appears to be inching closer to the official rollout of iOS 10.3.2, which is being tipped as a jailbreak killer.

Public beta 4 of 10.3.2 is now live, per MacRumors, somehow signaling that the version's final release is imminent. The instalment is seen as the last to arrive before the introduction of iOS 11. But more importantly, iOS 10.3.2 is said to set to the stage for the eventual demise of jailbreaking. The one component that was introduced with iOS 10.3 remains present on the updated version and is believed to be further enhanced.

File System APFS not only makes for a more optimal mobile computing in the iOS platform but also for a more secure environment. The move from HFS+ to APFS will make it more difficult or even impossible to jailbreak an iPhone or iPad, and rumors have it that file system's introduction with iOS 10.3 prompted Todesco to quit the jailbreaking scene.

And if 10.3 has been closed down to jailbreaking, more so with 10.3.2 as iDownloadBlog.com reported that unsurprisingly the OS step up is packed with the mandatory bug fixes and improvements. That being the case, the speculations only gained further traction that jailbreaking is inevitably approaching its final days.

Such is the scenario expected in the immediate aftermath of the iOS 10.3.2 release, which could be a few weeks or possibly just a few days away.

And if Todesco, the only hacker who successfully cooked up a jailbreak on iOS 10, has admitted defeat (he failed to unlock the iPhone 7 series) then grim days are certainly ahead for the jailbreaking world. The next iOS 10 jump is not expected to produce a fresh jailbreak version and the same goes for iOS 11, which will be exclusively designed for 64-bit devices. The latter feature is thought to be another robust wall that hackers will need to breach in order come up with a successful jailbreak.

So bleak is the road ahead for public jailbreaking and it could suffer an imminent demise with the successive deployments of iOS 10.3.2 in the next few weeks and iOS 11 in the second half of 2017 alongside the iPhone 8 and iPhone 7S series.
