Jailbreaking: Taking a Risk or a Precaution?

Apple and the jailbreak developers like the Dev-Team have been battling over it for a while with firmware releases and minor walls that the jailbreak developers eventually get past anyway, but not Apple has released the new shipment of iPhone 3GS units with a different kind of file that usually only checks for a corrupted boot logo, but now checks for a edited firmware, which is what is changed for jailbreaking. Will this stop jailbreaking? I don't think so, I think it'll be just another wall that the developers will get past. On Apple's website they go very harsh on jailbreaking because a lot of people use it to pirate apps and unlock their phones to use with other service providers. I have a jailbroken iPhone 3GS and have had a jailbroken iPod Touch 1G. My iPhone has no pirated apps and is still locked to my AT&T sim card. I just like the customization and advanced functionalities my phone has now, such as quick reply for text, folders to organize apps, customized background and themes, and much more. It gives us what Apple could not and would not allow.

Also in Cydia, the jailbreaker's app store, there are many pop-up blockers and apps that protect your phone from sites and adds gathering your information, something that Apple failed in doing well. Jailbreaking in my opinion is fine, pirating apps is not. So Apple, bring on the fight!
