Teens apparently banned from Apple Stores over unlocking an iPhone

How do you get yourself banned from Apple Stores for life? It's easy, all you need to do is jailbreak a store-owned iPhone. That is what four teens did at the Apple Store in downtown Palo Alto, prompting Apple to send out the teens' mugshots to all of its retail stores, warning employees to be "on the lookout".

... It wasn't the first time that someone unlocked an iPhone inside an Apple Store, as shown in this YouTube video which shows how a just purchased iPhone is unlocked inside the store. The difference to this case is that the teens unlocked a store-owned iPhone. "
