MuscleNerd– one of the original developers and maintainer of the RedSn0w, PwnageTool, and UltraSnow utilities–recently weighed in on what he believes to be fake jailbreaks, including gr1mra1n (a joke by p0sixninja who described the current prospects of an untethered jailbreak as “grim”), redpois0n, and yes, the Dream Jailbreak. For the Dream Jailbreak in particular, MuscleNerd [...]

Last week Joshua Hill (@p0sixninja)–the developer behind GreenPois0n and once a central figure to the Chronic-Dev Team–described the current status of an iPhone 5 jailbreak as “grim”, while saying he was currently “working on something bigger and few people share with me anymore”.

MuscleNerd, an actual developer in the iOS jailbreak scene (a founding member of the iPhone Dev-Team group and the maintainer behind RedSn0w, PwnageTool, and UltraSn0w) was seen duking it out with two groups of iOS 6 jailbreak hoaxes and scams over the past two days. John Herthop released a fake video, passing off a simulation [...]
