Sometimes it is to easy to relay on others for security, and especially so if we re talking about Apple and iOS devices which are considered safe and virus and malware free.

So as of today, Apple’s online stores are available to more users in more than 30 countries worldwide. Consequently, if you are among those lucky people in aforementioned countries, you will now be able to purchase online some or all of the new Apple products, which can later be easily jailbroken and therefore improved upon with various tweak and jailbreak apps.
