The hacker Planetbeing posted on reddit “I have an untethered iOS 6.0.2 JB running on my iPhone 5 right now.” and it will be only a matter of time before a jailbreak is a reality. The reason why he is waiting to release the jailbreak to thev public has everything to do with good timing.

The reasons it’s not released are because 1. releasing it would burn an exploit we want to save for ourselves so we can always get in to look at new firmware and help JB in the future, 2. iOS 6.1 is coming very soon and will likely break a small part of it anyway, there’s no point in sacrificing the many bugs it won’t break.

So there is a big change that we will get an untethered jailbreak shortly after Apple will release iOS 6.1.
