      same. there seems to be a lot of people that don’t realize some things don’t get done, not because they’re impossible, but because as soon as they do it a company will put a stop to it.

      it’s like cracking a Xbox or something. the very next patch will render the method obsolete and nonviable. when i heard this workaround was coming for Android, my immediate reaction was how long it would last before Apple just changed something so that it doesn’t work.

          Back it up on my hard drive and I’ll close your gaping security hole with my hotfix, sweetheart.

        Their hope was that they got close enough to an actual Apple device that breaking it would break Apple devices. It turns out they weren’t close enough, but they could be with a few improvements.

      Probably had to be extra careful to test. MDM software software might get glitched out.
