It is not illegal to decrypt Apple's private signing key and redistribute it. Look at the private key Apple uses in the Airport Express to encrypt AirTunes. It was extracted from the firmware about a year ago and reditributed on the internet. Apple has yet to sue the person who extracted it, update iTunes to blacklist that key, update the Airport Express to use a different, or anything else that even suggests that they care about that key being public. Bottom line, it is not illegal to decrypt Apple's SHSH blobs to extract the key(s) used for signing them.

Just because they didn't care to pursue legal ramifications in your example, it does not make it legal to decrypt and redistribute private keys, if not then they would not be called private ;) Remember Geohot and the PS3 not too long ago?

As we all know ios 5.1.1 has been rolled out and the new tinyumbrella allows shsh to be saved for 5.1 and 5.1.1 for the iphone 4 and 4s. That is possible until Apple servers keep on signing 5.1.

So if you have a jailbroken phone then simply add the latest I S H S H I T (no spaces...cause forums automatically censors words like that ?)

- I have added screenshots for you.
save shsh first then ask questions.
- You can save a backup copy by email to yourself.
- All previous versions can also be saved when you select via cydia.
- Make Sure you open app after install and then select all versions and then deselect via cydia.

Good luck! the smart ones will do as told and take benefit.

So iSHSH​it is another wonderful example of why censoring common words like sh​it is a bad idea. Not to mention the cultural implications.

I really can`t comprehend the context of your post but I`ll give you the benefit of doubt and assume you saved your blob as 5.1 isn`t being signed anymore.

:D
