Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net.

Default An interview with RSnake

I recently published an interview with RSnake, one
of the most prominent figures in internet security
and hacking, on my blog.

Feel free to check it out, here. (http://dennyaskiten.blogspot.com/2008/11/0411-08-intervjuserie-rsnake.html)

That was a pretty good read. I think he's a bit off on the numbers with the hacker community. I'd say the whole population is less then that.

Nice read.

I dunno, if you broaden the definition of 'hacking' to anyone that modifies an object to do something other than what it was originally intended for. PSP, Ipod, xbox, ps3 hack/mods for example, have a very large community. Don't know anyone with an iTouch that hasn't hacked it.
