Oh, I see, but that doesn't demonstrate his point that Apple isn't fighting jailbreaking very hard. For that he would need an example of a vulnerability that Apple didn't fix.
I guess the point is that updates which fix vulnerabilities (which are the only way to jailbreak) can never be evidence the Apple is fighting jailbreaking. Apple will always fix vulnerabilities, everyone always should.
Remotely exploitable vulnerabilities, yes, but local vulnerabilities are much less urgent to fix. If Apple truly didn't care about jailbreaks, local-only vulnerabilities might stick around a lot longer.

I guess the point he was making is that making jailbreaking impossible by fixing the vulnerability was absolutely necessary.

Well, there’s a thing that won’t happen :)
