iEmu was a project started by cmw that worked to get iOS booting in QEMU, "a generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer." The project aimed to support all devices (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and Apple TV 2G). The project appears to have been discontinued, and the site has since been replaced with a scam.

History

TODO

Site

The project's website, iEmu.org was a MediaWiki installation run by cmw. It was very simple and didn't contain much information about the project. The last available archive of the main page is dated 13 December 2013. The next archive, dated 17 December 2013, is broken.

Expiration

Sometime between 13 December and 19 December 2013, the domain was bought up by "Jailbreak.Me", a site that contains directions on how to jailbreak using legitimate jailbreak programs (such as redsn0w, sn0wbreeze, etc.), but all the programs are hosted on their server and shouldn't be trusted. Interestingly, a [WHOIS report of iEmu.org] reveals the domain is registed to "Chris Wade" (aka cmw). It is unlikely that cmw owns "Jailbreak.Me"; "Jailbreak.Me" most likely bought up the domain when it expired, but never updated the WHOIS information.
