Meanwhile, an Italian hacker named, Luca Todescoaka aka qwertyoruiop, claims that there is a jailbreak tool for iOs 9.2. The hacker reportedly found some glitches in the iOS kernel and jailbroke the operating system. However, his jailbreak tool is not yet available for download. There's still no confirmation if this software is legit.
