Salam,
I run a video game console repair shop.
Some customers ask me to modify their device so they can :
Installing Google Maps, YouTube, or WhatsApp
Making a full backup of the console
Transferring their data to another console
These modifications require bypassing the console’s protection measures (“jailbreak” or “modchip”) in order to have full control of the device.
I do not violate copyright. I do not provide any pirated games, and I do not help with illegal downloads.
1/ Is it halal to bypass a console’s protections in order to install legal applications such as YouTube or Google Maps?
2/ Am I responsible if the customer later uses my intervention to commit piracy at home, even though I do not help him with that?
