According to what Hamza tweeted, through the hack, you can ask your Siri to adjust back light levels and according to some sources, even discover your phone’s IP address and wi-fi signal strength. Of course you will need an iPhone 4S with a jailbreak to launch this hack. While how Hamza accomplished this isn’t clear yet, it most probably will be out in the open very soon.
