| "Countdown to SummerCon '92" |
|
|
| "Get ready for the biggest and best computer |
| hacker PARTY conference of the year!" |
|
|
| Phrack Inc. is proud to be the official sponsor of the 6th Annual SummerCon, |
| but this year is something different. |
|
|
| The date and location for this year's Summer Conference are for those with a |
| need to know. SummerCon is a private party, its for our friends, and its our |
| business and nobody elses'. Events from our past have made it necessary to |
| keep the important specifics under wraps, so our theme this year is privacy. |
|
|
| Would be informants, ignorant and biased security professionals, and little |
| malicious rodent hackers can forget about receiving an invitation. We are |
| making a list and checking it twice. If you would like to receive an |
| invitation and details about SummerCon then send mail to |
| "summer@stormking.com". |
|
|
| Meanwhile, back at Phrack... |
|
|
| It appears that Phrack is getting VERY popular. At last count we had well over |
| 775 people directly subscribed to the Phrack Mailing List. However, some |
| people aren't overjoyed at Phrack's popularity. In recent postings to EFF |
| newsgroups, complaints have been lodged that people downloading Phrack from |
| "ftp.eff.org" account for more than 1/3 of all ftp traffic on that site. Some |
| people at EFF have even suggested that Phrack be removed completely from their |
| system. When the high and mighty defenders of Knight Lightning's First |
| Amendment rights begin to balk, what does that say to the community at large |
| about EFF and their agenda? |
|
|
| In this issue of Phrack we feature "Cellular Telephony" by Brian Oblivion! |
| Brian tells us to expect more files on this topic from him in the near future, |
| but for now we can start with this very substantial taste. Additionally, this |
| issue will wrap up Black Kat's 3-part series on VAX/VMS and Dispater's 2-part |
| defense manual for police radar. Rambone is back with his second file on the |
| Pirate community and Datastream Cowboy picks up where Taran King left off in |
| Phrack 30 with Network Miscellany. And if that wasn't enough, Mycroft brings |
| us a file on Wide Area Information Services (WAIS). Subtitled "How Do I Use It |
| and Why Should I Care?" It tells you about the service in general and gives |
| directions for using WAIS to review Phrack. |
|
|
| Another spotlight file in this issue is "Standing Up To Fight The Bells." |
| Knight Lightning brings forth a message and a warning about what is happening |
| right now in the Congress and Senate of the United States, where the Bell |
| Operating Companies are seeking to hold on to yet another monopoly to control. |
| Be prepared to act and act fast or live forever with the consequences -- the |
| future of information services controlled by Ma Bell. |
|
|
| And finally the full details of Computers, Freedom, & Privacy II appear both in |
| a special file by Max Nomad and in two smaller articles in Phrack World News |
| (part 3). |
|
|
| We're back and we're Phrack. Enjoy reading it because we enjoy writing it! |
