Explains way to purchase its merchandise for free without jailbreaking iOS devices

Over the past few days, online technology forums are abuzz about how a Russian hacker Alexy V. Borodin, who goes by the moniker ‘ZonD80’ on YouTube, has discovered a way to circumvent payments for Apple iOS’s popular ‘in-app’ purchase that could potentially lead to losses for developers who put out free Apps (applications) for Apple devices - iPhone, iPad and Mac - hoping to earn through “in-app” purchases.
