Planetbeing, the well-known iOS developer, has come out and announced that the iOS 6 jailbreak for iPhone 5 is now available for iOS 6.0.2. This jailbreak will not yet be released to the public for some reasons; all of these he has explained himself. To find out allPlanetbeing had to say about the iOs 6 Jailbreak for iPhone 5 check out the quotes below after the jump.

Yeah, I’m not really sure what all the doom and gloom is about. The fact is, I have an untethered iOS 6.0.2 JB running on my iPhone 5 right now.

The reasons it’s not released are because 1. releasing it would burn an exploit we want to save for ourselves so we can always get in to look at new firmware and help JB in the future, 2. iOS 6.1 is coming very soon and will likely break a small part of it anyway, there’s no point in sacrificing the many bugs it won’t break.

so while jailbreaking is getting harder, reports of its death are highly exaggerated.

While the iOS 6 Jailbreak for iPhone 5 won’t yet is released for reasons listed above, you can still Jailbreak iOS 6 tethered using Sn0wbreeze 2.9.7.
