Bypass: Kindle Touch 3G Restriction
The kindle touch is an awesome device! The only thing it lacks is being able to access the (entire) internet on amazons free 3G. Previous versions of the kindle could, but the kindle touch can’t. I can see why the did this though, i’m sure a lot more people would use it now that it has a touch screen.
So far I have only been able to access Facebook and Twitter. (I am hopping for more, I will update xD)
Requirements
Kindle Touch 3G (duh…)
Facebook/Twitter
Instructions
NOTE: You will not be accessing facebook from the normal browser, but from a hidden browser inside the kindle. You do NOT have to jailbreak your kindle to do this.
First off go to > Kindle settings > Reading Options > Social Networks > Facebook (Or twitter)
Once you’ve clicked on Facebook (Link account). Once you click on it you will see the facebook login screen…do not login. Instead click on the “Sign up for facebook page” (Don’t worry, we will not be re signing up).
Once there, click on “Already have an account, Login”. Now login with your Facebook credentials. You should be loged into your facebook now on 3G! Now you can post, check in, stalk people…etc
Hope you enjoyed the post!
SORRY THE PICS ARE BAD QUALITY, I only have an iPod Touch 😦

Tor: Hurry up and get Tor for iOS before Apple removes it…
TOR has been around for a long time, but untill recently only for desktops. TOR encrypts your computer traffic and completely anonymizes you on the web. You can also change the IP that shows up as often as you like!
Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security known as traffic analysis.
Tor sends your data through lots of servers to obscure your IP and encrypts your data so no one can see it. It is used by law enforcement, the military, normal people, journalists, activists and many others!
I may be wrong (hopefully) but I think someone accidentally let this slip Apples review processes. So hurry up and download this awesome app before Apple removes it!!!

New Facebook App Vulnerability Lets you Easily Hack into Peoples Accounts!
Recently, a security hole in the Facebook iPhone & Android App was discovered by Gareth Wright. Wright discovered this hole while poking around the Facebook app, when shockingly, found that the Facebook login credentials were unencrypted in a .plist file! He sent the file to his friend, who put it on his iPhone and immediately he was logged into Wrights account! Wright contacted Facebook who said that they will be fixing this soon (But didn’t give a date). This hack is actually quite simple, your victim does have to be jailbroken though. Heres how to do it!
NOTE: This hack also works on Androids, but since I don’t own an android, I can’t show you how 😦
Requirements
The victums iDevice must be Jailbroken
You need an iDevice (Jailbroken)
A Computer
Instructions
1. Plug your victims iDevice into your computer. Open up DiskAid an navigate to /var/mobile/Applications/ you will have to find the folder the Facebook app is in though (this may take time depending on how many app the user has…)
2. Once you’ve located the Facebook folder go to Library > Preferences >
3. Copy com.facebook.Facebook.plist to your computer.
4. Unplug the victims iDevice from your computer and plug in YOUR iDevice. Navigate back the same folder and drop his com.facebook.Facebook.plist file onto your device. Open up your Facebook app and you will be logged into their account!
You will be logged into the Facebook account until the year 4000! The scary thing would be if someone codes software to to get this file remotely (It wouldn’t be hard). Someone probably already has. Be careful about plugging your device into “Charging Stations” and untrusted computers! Or you could be a victim of this attack!!!
