Apple warning on unlocked iPhones
Apple has warned that anyone attempting to unlock their iPhone to use with an unauthorised mobile network could find their phones irreparably damaged . The company said that modified mobiles would become "permanently inoperable" once Apple updates were installed. It follows a flurry of hacks claiming to unlock the phone, which is tied into the US AT&T network and O2 in the UK. Apple has denied that it is "doing anything proactively to disable iPhones that have been hacked or unlocked".
