  1. Surely someone at Mindcraft will retract this on NT faster than Linux in tests · · Score: 1

    Surely you can't be serious? With billion dollar Bill on thier side who has to worry? Sue all you want and we'll tie you up in courts for as long as they like.
    These tests must be verified by others. Shame they used such pricey servers. I would love to try this myself.
    I have serious problems with Mindcraft's method of aquiring there assistance. The 3 usenet half-hearted requests for help is really disgusting.

  3. Oops. Hacker vs. Cracker. on Kevin Mitnick Speaks · · Score: 1

    I consider myself a hacker. I have cracked, as in removing copy protection from software. I have cracked into systems via modems and internet. I have dumpster dived for info... I have turned off a television station. I have changed root passwords. I have touched nothing but investigated the operating system and programs on many systems. I have written war-dailers, LD code finders, and scanned thousands of local prefixes? I have modified hardware for this or for that. I monkied fast fixes and touched everything since C/PM.
    I think I am a hacker.
    Of course all the phreak activity was done a long time ago. When it was safe, thank you crossbar!

  4. Secret Service is rough... on Kevin Mitnick Speaks · · Score: 1

    I was charged with felony computer fraud and felony wire fraud in 1986 (I was 16.). I pleaded 'no contest'. The SS, CIA, FBI, and State Police came and pulled from school. Ran-sacked(sp?) the house and confiscated my equipment. I was heavily phreaking, pirating, and hacking. All the things you shouldn't do with a modem, hehehe... The SS agent told me I was likely going to jail for a year and then were going to ask why I did it. CIA asked me who was my contact in Russia... We used play around with Aliance teleconferencing and called people all over the world and mess with them...Used to have lists of phone numbers to all kinds of places, Whitebouse, Kremlin, and such...
    Anyways, my parents quickly contacted a lawyer and was able to stop the SS from taking me away. SS wanted me bad. With the presence of laywer I told the SS and CIA that these were pranks and showed them the printouts from dozen's of BBSs that this stuff is widely avaliable. My supercool lawyer was even able to get most of equipment back except my printouts of thousands of MCI,Sprint, and AT&T codez...
    All in all the SS seems to be able to do whatever they want...

    BTW - Dr.Who (from 301) are you still alive?

  5. JMZ article really confirmed my beliefs... on JWZ isn't the only one · · Score: 1
