Apple on Thursday began censoring the world "jailbreak" amongcontent in the iTunes Store, including the song "Jailbreak" byIrish rockers Thin Lizzy, though the issue was quickly addressed. Users began noticing on Thursday that some uses of the word"jailbreak" have been censored among iTunes Store content.Strangely, however, some instances of the word remained readable. For example, the album "Jailbreak" by Thin Lizzy, and the album'stitular track both remained visible on iTunes. However, otherinstances of the song "Jailbreak" on compilation albums andsoundtracks were been censored to read "J*******k." Update: As of Thursday afternoon, the issue was addressed, and content onthe iTunes Store once again displays the word "jailbreak" withoutcensoring it. The change applies to music and applications.

Earlier, the word was also censored from other artists, such as asong with the same title from the band Gossip on their album"That's Not What I heard," and Sonic Syndicate's song from thealbum "Eden Fire." Outside of the song by Thin Lizzy, or AC/DC's own "Jailbreak" songfound on its third album (and not available on the iTunes Store),jailbreaking refers to the process of hacking iOS to allowed usersto install custom software and tweaks without Apple's permission.Performing a jailbreak on an iPhone, iPad or iPad touch voidsApple's warranty for the devices. Through jailbreaking, hackers have created their own customapplications which are available from an alternative storefrontknown as Cydia, similar to Apple's official App Store for iOS.There are many free and paid applications available on Cydia thatallow users to install custom tweaks, user interface themes andvarious other software that does not comply with Apple's iOSdeveloper agreement. Jailbreaking itself is not illegal, however, the process can beused to pirate software from the App Store, which is against the law. Concern over piracyis one of the main reasons Apple has fought the practice of jailbreaking. In addition to music content, Apple's censoring of the word"jailbreak" also extends to officially approved software for iOSdevices. Jib Cranes Manufacturer
