tvOS-Checkra1n

Presented at Objective by the Sea version 3.0 (2020), March 13, 2020, 1:45 p.m. (50 minutes)

Earlier this year I was working on developing Nito store and NControl to liven up the scene of Apple TV. NControl became successful immediately. (Have you ever tried to type in a Wi-Fi password on Apple TV with an Apple TV controller? Yea, painful.) Weeks later, Apple releases iOS13 and adds support for PS4 controllers and xBoxOne controllers. Sherlocked. Well that was fun, sigh. The end is nigh...but then! Later in the month, BOOM. Literally. BOOM Bootrom Exploit dropped and the entire Jailbreak and Apple community is in shock. This is the first time in over 10 years a bootrom vulnerability has been discovered and an exploit has been developed. This is epic for iOS, but what does that mean for AppleTV and tvOS? …Chime in the Aladdin song… A Whole New World, a new fantastic point of view! Now the fun begins and a team is gathered for development.
