As of this writing, the only working iOS jailbreak version is for the previously released Apple iOS 9.1 operating system and iOS users who have upgraded their devices to iOS 9.2 are still waiting for the latest jailbreak update.

In the iOS jailbreaking community, the group known only as PangGu is the most prolific and probably the most trusted. PangGu has yet to release a jailbreak version of iOS 9.2.

However, there are a handful of websites devoted to jailbreaking that have actually releases a new jailbreak tool for iOS 9.2. While this might spell some good news for the community, it turns out that the tool was actually fake and prominent figures in the jailbreaking community have advised their followers to steer clear of the tool as it might contain malicious and possibly damaging lines of codes.

Since no jailbreaking tool has yet to surface for iOS 9.2, users are left wondering whether PangGU or other teams will still pursue the task of hacking the operating system especially when rumors are already circulating regarding the imminent release of iOS 9.3, according to Slash Gear.

To add to the dilemma, users who opted to upgrade their devices to iOS 9.2 are not allowed to downgrade their operating system back to iOS 9.1, which means that they are stuck with a un-jailbroken system, according to Forbes.

 Close followers of the Chinese hacker group PangGu claims that the team is suggesting users to promptly upgraded their system to the latest version of iOS. The statement instantly fueled some rumor that the team might be nearing the completion of their hacking tool.

For the uninitiated, the act of jailbreaking an iOS device is deliberately circumventing Apple's terms and agreement. Moreover, he act is considered to be a cheap trick especially by die hard Apple fans.

Despite the negative image jailbreaking is tagged with, the United States Copyright Office has been on the side of the hackers exempting them from any legal action. The Copyright Office claims that the act of jailbreaking, or changing limitations set by Apple on its devices is covered by legal standards.

Strangely enough, the law also states the exemption does not apply to Tablet devices. Additionally, the term "tablet" is still considered as a vague word in the legal context.
