6
TAP THE NEW CYDIA APP STORE ICON ON YOUR HOME SCREEN.
7
DOWNLOAD THE FREE APP COVERT.
Covert opens a Private Browsing tab in Safari so you won't have to download a special browser for looking at porn.
If you're paranoid about whether Safari is in Private Browsing mode or not, just look at the user interface. If the UI is gray, then you're in Private Browsing mode.
TIPS
You can open it up in a new page or if your worried about someone looking in history clear your cookies history and cache.
Covert isn't the only porn option in the Cydia App Store. If you decide on a paid app, then you can purchase it through PayPal or through Amazon Mobile Payments.
You may have to take some extra steps to jailbreak your iPod Touch or iPhone if you have Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) on your Mac.
Avoid illegal activity.
WARNINGS
The App Store records all of your past purchases. The good news is that you can re-download them. The bad news is that anyone who knows the password to your iTunes account can see them. If you want to make a habit of browsing porn, then make sure no one else knows your iTunes password.
Visits to a mobile porn site are detectable in your browser's history. However, by going to your Home Page -> Clicking Settings -> Clicking Safari -> and then Clicking 'Clear History', you can prevent Safari from auto-suggesting pages that you have visited in the past.

An iPod Touch or iPhone
Incognito, My Secret Folder, Spy Calc or Video Safe
Mobile Safari
A Mac running OS X 10.5 or later
A USB cord for connecting your device to the Mac
