some way to some central processor. Every building, and everything within those
buildings are networked. Ang gaining access to the network, allows you to gain
access to just about anything, assuming you can defeat any security involved. I
like the show mainly due to the security and insecurity involved. They are
constantly breaking the security on everything.
The show probably is based on some variation of the future, and it does show
that no matter how sophisticated things get, there always will be ways around
it. Having the ability to defeat these controls, allows you to have control
over your own destiny as far as concepts of 'big brother' are concerned.
If the government turned into the big brother depicted in 1984, I am sure
those "good enough" would not be as affected. They would simply find ways to
get around controls and modify or neutralize anything that was threating to
them.
Since everyone has been rambling, I thought I would ramble some too.

I also have to disagree with your first comment. Just because everyone is
going to college does not mean we will loose that many people. When I left
about 2 years ago, I still tried to call here as much as I could. Taran (or
Knight) did bring up a good point about college systems getting smarter but if
you go to a college that is good enough to have phones in each of the dorms (or
if you live in an apartment) then most of the time you don't have a thing to
worry about.

Actually, the idea of losing people due to college was KL's postulate... and I
basicaly agree with it. Sure some people will keep being involved but most
wont have the time, equipment, and the fact that they will no longer be treated
as a minor by the law will act as a detriment. (no that sentence wasnt
constructed right...)
Yow Lex...Cyberpunk for ever...Speaking of which (this belongs on the phrack
sub but Ill forget so...) would anybody be interested (besides me) if I somehow
managed to interview William Gibson, author of Neuromancer & Count Zero, about
what he thought the future of "computer crime" was? Make it into a file & put
in in phrack. Well *I* think it would be cool.

Ok, me and Bill are here right now on my 3-way with the 0perator. We had her
connect us to 314-070-1000. Bill said that he was priveledged and that he had
to speak to his brother in the post office. When we thought the 0perator had
left the line, Bill proceded to simulate an 800 DA ring with his lips. When the
operator came on, he asked for the first company with Banana in its name and we
were given Banana Educational Software and cracked up. We were hooked up to a
recording. After the recording said 800-328, the operator came on and said she
was reporting this line. She said she has had previous accounts... The
operator then paused and said, "Yes, yes I'd like a trace. The number is
314-432-0756, good you traced it." She then proceeded to access another loop
and keep us on hold for several minutes. Oh, forgot a part. After she finally
consented to connect the number, Bill said that she could go, and she says,
"No, I want to hear this!" and then she became silent until she started being
rude and decided that she was working for the FBI and set up a trace.
ANYWAY, after being put on hold for a few minutes, she came back and we
requested the supervisor and she wouldn't give her to us. We eventually got
dropped. We couldn't even file a complaint because we didn't have her fargin'
name. I say we kill her. I say we hang her, then we kill her. I say we
tattoo her, then we scorch her, then we hang her, and THEN we kill her.
I say you give her to me!

Yes that is correct, as many of us get older, the laws surrounding us are due
to change will will affect our outlook as to just how important the phreak/hack
community really is to us. Some of the people that feel threatened may start
paying for calls rather than phreak, but this then gets expensive.
Furthermore, in college, there is most liklely little time for this. Now Lex
may disagree becuase his exsperience may be a bit differenet, but he also takes
anout a month or more off between calls here. In reference to Cheap Shades, he
ran Metal Shop AE here in StL. Then off to college, he brought the computer
and put up QuickShop. However, he had little time to use it and the necesssity
