Mac app store cracked

[shamiko_]

The Mac App Store's security has been cracked. This means that, by installing a software called Kickback, you will be able to pirate any applications in the store. However, the crack will not be available until February 2011, according to Dissident:[/p]

We don't want to release kickback as soon as the [Mac App] Store gets released. I have a few reasons for that.

Most of the applications that go on the Mac App Store [in the first instance] will be decent, they'll be pretty good. Apple isn't going to put crap on the App Store as soon as it gets released. It'll probably take months for the App Store to actually have a bunch of crappy applications and when we feel that it has a lot of crap in it, we'll probably release Kickback.

So we're not going to release Kickback until well after the store's been established, well after developers have gotten their applications up. We don't want to devalue applications and frustrate developers.

It was cracked a long time ago by Hackulous

But also, it has no DRM.
So...it really isn't cracking.

EDIT: I was talking about kickback. It was announced during Meetulous '10

Yes.

Ok then do you need a specific version of snow leopard to be able to install it?

I'm thinking of building a hackintosh (for awhile now).
