That's a good point. Buffer overflows are merely annoying bugs in programs -- until some stupid cracker figures out how to execute code from one.

I'd say that since jailbreaks are actually bugs in the firmware that people are exploiting, it's probably a GOOD THING that Apple is patching them, rather than let badder guys figure out a way to exploit these bugs for malicious purposes.

I actually just learned about jailbreaking about to months ago. It's amazing, yet sad at the same time.
