Apple warned today that it may deny service to Jailbroken devices, because it is a violation of the end user license agreement.
Razorianfly.com jokingly reported today that Apple may “brick” user devices. This is simply not the case. Apple is asking for a battle and a huge backlash from the growing (exponentially) jailbreak community. It also cannot shut the phone part of the device down because ATT would be forced to get involved and it would damage the customer relationship. Does this statement even say that the Apple specific iPhone services such as FaceTime and MobileMe may be shut down?
It is also important to note that unauthorized modification of the iOS is a violation of the Phone end-user license agreement and because of this, Apple may deny service for an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that has installed any unauthorized software.

As of today, Jailbreakers need not worry about the legal ramifications of modifying their iOS device as long as they do not download or install copyrighted software. PCWorld states that the new ruling won’t help users, in fact it won’t change anything.
The U.S. Copyright Office slapped Apple in the face by declaring iPhone jailbreaking legal, but that won’t change anything for iPhone users – Via PCWorld
This means that Apple can’t sic the police on jailbreak users and probably wont shut these devices (or services) down without asking for lawsuits. It doesn’t mean that Apple can’t protect it’s own products from tampering, and that it won’t (or shouldn’t) detect Jailbroken devices, but it does mean that the developers and sites that offer the software that iDevice users need are safe.
