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 Little help here?

So guys, I'm writing a paper on internet security and hacking world wide and I was wondering what kind of questions you'd like to see answered.

I'm covering the basics of course, but if there are any specifics you'd want included, please help me out ;)

I'd like to see a comparison of the prison sentences for people convicted of 'hacking', compared to those who committed real crimes. Rapists, muderers etc.

When I say 'hacking', I don't mean the people who were convicted for stealing millions of dollars, but the ones who are convicted for petty reasons. The Chinese for example. It's something I don't know a whole lot about, but I do know there are companys out there dedicated to seeing that convicted 'hackers' are punished fairly. The way they are treated in court is fucking heinous.
