Problems

Domain owner problem

On 7 October 2011, MuscleNerd announced that the domain was sold and that the new owner was unknown, so that there is a big danger of the site hosting malware. It turned out that the new owner was friendly and sold it the next day to Saurik who hosted the site anyway. Problem solved.

Certificate problem

Starting early December 2015, the domain started to display a blank homepage. In addition, JailbreakMe began to redirect traffic to HTTPS; however, the TLS certificate it was using was invalid. Turns out comex moved the files to his personal domain.
