Apple rolled out iOS 10.0.1 which dampened any hope of an iOS jailbreak for the iOS 10. Pangu had that one last tool to release but the understanding was that the Cupertino company had foiled the Chinese group’s exploits yet again.
That was until recently when Lucas Tedesco took the spotlight once again to show that iOS 10.0.1 is not 100% perfect. Tedesco’s latest breakthrough spread over Twitter recently wherein he showed off an iPhone 7 running iOS 10.0.1 jailbreak with Cydia 1.1.26 installed.

Take note that this is not the first time that Tedesco has come out to show off his hacking skills. He did it before with an iOS 10 jailbreak. He showed a couple of videos cracking the iOS 10, something he accomplished using the YaluX which worked on arm64ie.64bit devices.
Where are the actual iOS 10.0.1 jailbreaks?
Tedesco’s breakthrough of an iOS 10.0.1 jailbreak could be something only if it were actually available. Similar to the iOS 10 jailbreaks he showed off on video, there is no indication of him making the tool available publicly.
Tedesco follows a long line of independent hackers who have either kept the jailbreak to themselves or have simply faked everything to get some attention. Right now, the obvious search is for an iOS 10.0.1 jailbreak and it doesn’t take a genius to note that his dish was a bit coincidental.
This is of course not meant to discredit Tedesco. However, limiting the iOS 10.0.1 jailbreak to himself comes more with questions that answers. Hence, his claim of an iOS 10.0.1 jailbreak is nothing more but a hoax until he does come out with a tool which the public can use.
Moving forward, there is no question that the Apple jailbreaking community will continue to hope for an official iOS 10.0.1 jailbreak tool. Pangu and TaiG are still the reliable sources for such though they seem to have heavily fallen behind.
