> Play audio from Youtube videos (in Safari) while the screen is locked.
You have a long good list of reasons, but this one is fixable by installing the YouTube app and paying for premium.

Besides, I don't want to install a separate app. It's a website, and I should be able to use my web browser.
Edit: Also, this patch doesn't just work on Youtube, it's for any video in Safari.
To be fair premium includes lots of things, including unlimited music streaming ala Spotify, ad free YouTube etc.
You’re not paying only for the background playback. Literally no one would be willing to pay for that. It’s just a minor perk, that’s all.
A perk you said you’d be willing to risk JBing your (expensive) phone over. Most people would probably be more willing to just pay the fee for what is a fairly decent music streaming service.
Point is, this was there by default, and they intentionally sabotaged it to force you to use their paid service. This is shitty malware-like behavior and I do not want to encourage them. I would not give them a single cent and I happily spent time to defeat it, because fuck them.
I don’t care about anything you’re saying here about how things are or were. Really. Not one bit.
I was merely saying that for that -one- particular reason for jailbreaking, a much simpler alternative exist (from a layman perspective).
That’s really just factual information, contributing to the discussion if you like, and downvoting me because you have grudge with Google and Apple is utterly misguided.
It's knowing that they will link my viewing habits to my Google account and never delete them.
