    Not to rub it in.. But if they are Jailbreaking it without securing it then they deserve it. Plus this is just funny all he did was mess with people and didn't take anything personal..

    I wonder how much money the hacker made? Of course doiop.com cancelled the redirect, so that put a limit on it. What if the hacker was really just trying to steal the people's credit card and bank information instead of changing their wallpaper and telling them to change their password?

    Agreed.

    If you are using a jailbreaked iPhone anyway, you might as well make it secure.

    Is this like the forums a while back. Anyone using PHP and using the made templates and things, didn't bother changing the passwords, so all forums were reset. Losing loads of info. People aren't really smart when it comes to passwords or security. People give out their passwords to just about anyone.
