I don't quite understand what you're trying to say here. The difference between an "untethered" and a "tethered" jailbreak is that an untethered one sticks around after you reboot your phone. So how exactly is this relevant here?

An untethered jailbreak is one that doesn’t required you to be connected to your computer. (http://osxdaily.com/2010/11/24/tethered-jailbreak-vs-untethe...). A tethered jailbreak requires you to be connected to a computer.
The difference is that an untethered jailbreak takes advantage of a security flaw in the OS that could be theoretically embedded into a website that you visit and your phone could be jail broken without your knowledge.
A tethered jailbreak means that you either intentionally took steps to bypass the security of the OS or someone who had access to your device did.
A “tethered jailbreak” means the user purposefully went through a series of steps to jailbreak thier device or someone else physically got access to thier device.
