The Government rewrote the rules a bit with this ruling. Apple has said they will not service your phone if they find it has been jailbroken. How much do you want to bet that the next move by Apple will be similar to what Motorola did with the eFuse technology.

Net effect is that the government may have opened up the ability to do this, but it is not going to be selectable for common users because they don't have the tech ability and don't want to brick the phone.
Will a move like this cause prospective iPhone users to go Android? Not likely since the technique will probably flourish on both sides of the market.
