Is jailbreaking an iPhone illegal? And how do I do it? - 1
Yes it is.
It is illegal and you should not do it. Give the phone back to it's owner.
Both of these answers are wrong.
Jailbreaking is legal. Apple tried to make it illegal about 6 years ago, but they failed.
Now, when you jailbreak the device, any warranty you have is void, so if the phone breaks, Apple won't fix it since it is jailbroken. A quick way to bypass this is to restore the device in iTunes; this will erase everything off of the device.
How you do it depends on the iOS version that your phone has. Go to Settings>General>About>Version
There currently is no jailbreak, at least a public one, for 9.2-9.3.1, so if you have any of these versions, you can't jailbreak yet.
It isn't illegal, though it voids Apple's warranty.
How you do it depends on what iPhone you have & what version of iOS it is running

- Is jailbreaking an iPhone 4s the same as unlocking (supposedly illegal now)? I'm an Android user so if I'm not using the correct terms then I apologize. I've read that jailbreaking an iPhone 4s has it's advantages. So is jailbreaking similar to unlocking or to rooting (Android)? Also, if an iPhone is "jailbroken" can it be updated to iOS 7 or does it have to be returned to its original state?
