Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) eventually determined that the jailbreak or root your smartphone remains legal to do, at least up to 3 years. This is thanks to the victory of EFF, the agency that defends the rights of consumers in the digital world.
Previous jailbreak or root your smartphone is legalized by the DMCA, but rules out this year. That prompted the EFF to ask for an extension in order to jailbreak or root your smartphone remains legalized. With this victory, then everyone is free to do the jailbreak or rooting your smartphone up to 3 years. After 3 years? I believe the EFF would do the same again as this time ^ ^

"If you buy a gadget, the gadget is fully yours, you can install any software you want without fear of legal problems"
To jailbreak or root on a smartphone allows you to install the operating system or application freely. For example, by doing a jailbreak on your iPhone, you can install a variety of applications that do not exist in the App Store freely.
But unfortunately, this rule does not apply to the tablet. Owner tablet according to the DMCA, it is not allowed to perform the jailbreak or rooting on the tablet he had bought. Ouch!

According to DMCA Jailbreaking is always legal for tablets and phones... only unlocking was illegal once but Got a good response from the white house about legalizing cell phone unlocking. here is the source:

The recent ruling that effectively bans third-party unlocking has ruffled more than a few feathers, and the people have spoken with their electronic signatures---14,322 of them , to be exact. Now the petition to the White House, which asks that DMCA protection of phone unlockers be reconsidered, has finally received an official response, and it appears that it's for the positive.
You can still get your phone unlocked from any third party vendors like Unlock-Zone.com ..there is no issues ..
