Library of Congress, DMCA and Jailbreaking iPhones – Does it Allow Jailbreaking?
It is being widely reported on the blogosphere that the US government has “okayed” jailbreaking of iPhones and expressly made it legal. In the interest of getting to the truth, I located the three year announcement on the Library of Congress website that seems to cover these exceptions for the DMCA . It is worth reading and interpret it as you will. The sections on software do not appear to inherently allow jailbreaking except within a narrow set of conditions for use – however it could be that other reports are based on information found from another source.
