First jailbreak for iOS 9 released to the wild
The device hack will grant the user root access even with Apple’s new ‘rootless’ security model, which was designed largely to stop jailbreaks like this and prevent malware. Once you have run the jailbreak, you will have the option to install the Cydia framework in order to install apps from outside the App Store as well as make unapproved system changes.
A number of Cydia features and apps do not yet work with iOS 9, and the team is currently looking for beta testers to assist developers get their unapproved apps iOS 9 ready. It should be understood before running the jailbreak that almost all iOS malware infections have been the result of users jailbreaking their device in order to avoid paying for apps, and that doing so opens you up to serious risk. There are potential legal implications as well, depending on jurisdiction, with a constant fight over a user’s right to jailbreak happening in the US.

xxRider702xx Legal actions for jailbreaking an apple product? That is the dumbest thing ever, if youre paying x amount of money for something you should be able to do whatever you want with it.
Exactly, TTG news staff like to make things sound dramatic. You just need to watch out for installing unknown tweaks by unknown devs. Other than that, your set :)

This is great news! I was actually quite stressed out about iOS 9 jailbreaking.
I was pretty sure it wouldn't be possible.
Hearing that it actually is basically made my day!
