Earlier, the dangered wolf on Twitter shared an update regarding jailbreaking on the latest iOS versions. He framed a tweet and said that “iOS 15 has a trick up its sleeve to make jailbreaking much harder: They made the root file system sealed, so modifying it directly would make your device unbootable. Every jailbreak must now be rootless and not modify OS files.

Is it Possible to Jailbreak iOS 16?
Attempting to jailbreak your iPhone running the latest iOS 16 will render the device unbootable. So, if you intend to jailbreak your iPhone in the coming months, we advise you not to update it to the most recent iOS versions. Any changes to the OS’s root filesystem will prevent your iPhone from booting, so any jailbreak must now be rootless and not modify any system files. But, if you want to jailbreak your iPhone, you should use an older version of iOS.
