Was it ever actually illegal to jailbreak? I know Steve claimed it was. But the company saying that doesn't necessarily make it so.

They actually bricked about 500,000 phones when the first jail breaking started. Then after everyone got all pissed they stopped.

Bricking your phone only happens if you have an old cable or if you have a power outage or unplug the phone while it is updating. It can happen if you put the wrong software on in some instances, but mostly your phone will deny that version right out before that happens.

I think the only violation from jailbreaking, previously, was the EULA. EULA isn't law anyway.
