    If you open your CPU up to a jailbreak by being a dumkopf, does that really count as Open Source?

      Not sure what you’re getting at here. A microcode exploit and open source software have nothing to do with each other.

        Well a jailbroken device is “open”, and the exploit has been well documented, so as a user and developer of open source software for several decades and knowing just how poorly open source software is generally documented I thought I’d make a little joke.

        Of course, this is the internet and not everyone has the same sense of humour.

        In other words, it’s a joke … laugh.
