Apple has left even more of iOS 10 unencrypted in iOS 10 beta 2, reports MuscleNerd, a well known hacker in the jailbreak community.

It was no accident. Apple left even more images unencrypted in 10.0b2 (e.g. all ramdisks and 32-bit bootloaders!)

With beta one the company left the 64-bit kernel and the main file system unencrypted which was initially thought to be a bold move or a huge oversight. Apple later confirmed it was intentional.

In beta two Apple has left all the ramdisks (except ATV), 32-bit bootloaders, all kernels, and the main filesystem unencrypted.

How much of this can help jailbreakers? I don't understand technical aspect of this thing, so if someone would like to explain I will appreciate it. Thanks.

Means they can jailbreak ios not through a bug even through bootloader or any other means like custom firmware, similar like iphone 4

That is a good news than. I hope they can get it nicely done and I hope community can prove JB is not about piracy but rather customizing and running tweak apps.

Good luck with that! The reality is that the bulk of the support for jailbreaking is because it allows people to pirate apps. Without those people, who are probably 90% of the jailbreak community, jailbreaking would not exist; there simply wouldn't be enough demand. Your personal reasons for jailbreaking are not relevant to the larger reality.

Maybe someone will crack the bootrom like the iPhone 4 days. That would be dope. Time to put the "dream team" back together and get to work guys.

If you ask me something is very fishy here. Apple do everything on purpose and this looks like jailbreak trap to me.
