| ~ We've Had A Rest, We're Still The Best ~ |
|
|
| You've been waiting for this for a while and it's finally here. A lot has |
| happened since the last issue. I guess I should start off with the most |
| important thing as far as the administration of Phrack is concerned: Phrack 41 |
| is the last issue for which I will serve as editor. |
|
|
| Why? Well for one, I was in a motorcycle wreck about a month ago and lost the |
| use of my right arm for a while and, due to the related financial difficulties, |
| I was forced to sell my computers and some other stuff. |
|
|
| Secondly, due to my lack of being a rich boy and having access to a nice |
| machine, I found it necessary to allow others to help me in putting out the |
| past several issues and that has resulted in some things being released that I |
| really wasn't happy with. |
|
|
| However, don't get me wrong. I'm not gonna sit here and dis my friends just |
| because we differ in opinion about some things. I think that the overall |
| quality of the issues has been pretty good and anyone who says it's not can |
| basically suck my dick, because I don't give a fuck about your opinion anyway. |
|
|
| Thirdly, and the most important reason why I am resigning as editor of Phrack, |
| is a general lack of desire on my part. I mean the whole reason I even got |
| involved with doing this was because of hacking -- partly for curiosity and |
| partly for being able to thumb my nose at the powers that be and other |
| intellectual types that say, "You can't do/learn about that because we don't |
| think blah blah blah." Like I'm supposed to give a fuck what anyone else |
| thinks. The type of public service that I think hackers provide is not showing |
| security holes to whomever has denied their existence, but to merely embarrass |
| the hell out of those so-called computer security experts and other purveyors |
| of snake oil. This is a service that is truly unappreciated and is what keeps |
| me motivated. ANYWAY...if you wanna hear me rant some more, maybe I'll get to |
| do my own Eleeeeet3 Pro-Phile in the future. Heh! |
|
|
| But really, since my acquisition of Phrack, my play time has been hampered and |
| consequently, I have started to become bored with it. It was great to meet a |
| lot of cool people and I learned some things. It's now time for me to go back |
| to doing what I like best. For anyone who's interested in corresponding, I'm |
| focusing my time on radio communications, HAM radio, scanning, and cellular |
| telephones. If you are interested in talking about these things to me or |
| whatever, feel free to write me at dispater@stormking.com. |
|
|
| Aside from all that, I feel that Phrack can be better. That's why issue 42 |
| will have a new editor and administrative staff. I'm not saying who, but you |
| may be surprised. NO, it's not KL or TK either. |
|
|
| And with that, I'm saying adios and, as Adam Grant said, "Don't get caught." |
|
|
| Now onto the issue: |
|
|
| In this issue's Loopback, Phrack responds to the numerous letters it has |
| received over the past several months, including the return of Shit Kickin' Jim |
| and a message from Rop, editor of Hack-Tic. |
|
|
| The Racketeer (Rack of The Hellfire Club) continues his Network Miscellany |
| column with plenty of new information about fake mail. |
|
|
| Phrack Pro-Phile focuses on one of the hacking community's most mysterious |
| figures: Supernigger. SN was somewhat involved with the infamous DPAK and has |
| some words of wisdom to the eleets and other folks who enjoy boasting about |
| their number of years in "the hacker scene." |
