Former Apple Intern and iPhone Hacker Comex to Work for Google

Former Apple employee and JailbreakMe.com hacker Nicholas Allegra, better known as Comex, will be interning at Google, reports Forbes.   Comex, who tweeted the news on Tuesday night, was hired by Apple as an intern in 2011. News broke that he was no longer with Apple late last year, after he forgot to respond to an email that offered him continued employment at the company.   Though Comex did not mention what he will work on at Google, he did mention his disdain for Android.He added on Twitter that he won't be working on Android, an operating system that he has never "like[d] enough to ever want to hack it."Before interning for Apple, Comex famously ran JailbreakMe.com, a site that offered a simple way for iOS users to jailbreak their devices. His clever exploits highlighted his talents and in an interview with Forbes, he likened jailbreaking to "editing an English paper… You just go through and look for errors. I don't know why I seem to be so effective at it."   Recent Mac and iOS Blog Stories • Drafts Updated to Version 3.0, Adding Deeper Organization and New Actions • First Reviews of Samsung Galaxy S4: Great Screen, Gimmick Features, Bad Plastic Design • Apple Reaches 45B App Downloads With $9B Paid to Developers • GoComics Offers Free Classic Comic Strips Like 'Peanuts' and 'Calvin and Hobbes' • iCloud Boasts 300M Users and 20 Percent Growth in Q2 2013 • Apple Continues to See Significant Growth in Greater China • Apple Seeds Build 12E36 of OS X Beta 10.8.4 Developers • Apple Store iOS App Updated With Push Delivery and iPhone Upgrade Notifications
