BLOOD : : : :-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-: FIRST, I WILL TOUCH ON WHAT KIND OF HARDWARE IS HELPFUL TO HAVE. A MODEM IS NICE TO HAVE, ALTHOUGH IT IS A LITTLE KNOWN FACT THAT ONE IS NOT NEEDED. A PUSHBUTTON PHONE IS REQUIRED TO HACK AT MCI AND SPRINT CODES, BUT NOT FOR TELENET NUMBERS, BUT A MODEM IS RE- QUIRED FOR TELENET NUMBERS. OKAY, NOW THAT I HAVE GOTTON THAT OUT OF THE WAY, I WILL BRIEFLY TOUCH ON WHAT EACH SERVICE IS USED FOR. MCI -=- IS A LONG DISTANCE SERVICE LIKE AT&T, BUT HAS CHEAPER RATES, AND REACHES MORE PLACES. POINTED MORE AT SMALL CORP- ORATIONS, IT CAN ALSO BE USED IN THE NORMAL, EVERYDAY HOUSEHOLD. SPRINT --==-- BASICALLY IS THE SAME AS MCI, EXCEPT, IT IS MORE POINTED AT THE HOME THAN THE CORPORATIONS. BUT UNLIKE MCI, IS MORE EXPENSIVE AND IS ONLY AVAILBLE IN SOME STATES. TELENET --===-- THIS IS A LIKE A SUB-DIAL PORT FOR CHAINS OF BUSSINESSES TO TRANSFER INFORMATION BACK AND FORTH ON THE COMPANY'S EXPENSE. REQUIRES A MODEM TO HACK AT, BUT WHEN YOU GET A PASSWORD, YOU END UP BEING VERY SATISFIED. OKAY, NOW THAT I HAVE EXPLAINED EACH OF THE SERVICES, I WILL EXPLAIN WHAT WE CAN USE THEM FOR AND HOW THEY WORK. LET'S SAY THAT YOU HAVE A SISTER IN NEW YORK, AND YOU WANT TO MAKE A FREE PHONE CALL TO HER. YOU LIVE IN VICTORIA, B.C. AND CAN'T (OBVIOUSLY) AFFORD TO PAY $1.35 A MINUTE. SO, LET'S SAY YOU HAVE A PUSHBUTTON PHONE AND DIAL A MCI SWITCHBOARD THAT A BUSSINESS IS RENTING. OF COURSE THIS IS ILLEGAL, AND I WILL AT THE END OF THIS FILE LIST SOME MCI, SPRINT, TELENET SWITCHBOARDS FOR YOU TO HACK AT. ANYWAYS, ON WITH IT, YOU DIAL IT, AND GET THIS REALLY WIERD BEEP, AND THE EVERYTHING GOES SILENT. THAT IS YOUR CUE TO PUSH SOME BUTTONS ON YOUR PHONE FROM 6-8 NUMBERS. LET'S SAY YOU PUSH 82929372 AND SUDDEN- LY HERE ANOTHER SET OF BEEPS. THIS IS YOUR CUE TO DIAL THE NUMBER YOU WANT. FOR INSTANCE, LET'S SAY YOU DIAL: 201-341-2311 (THE NUMBER FOR YOUR SISTER). LOW AND BEHOLD, YOU HERE A DIAL TONE AND THEN A PHONE DIALING. THAT IS THE SWITCHBOARD DIALING THE NUMBER YOU PUNCHED IN. THEY YOU HEAR THE LINE RINGING (MIGHT BE BUSY) AND YOUR SISTER ANSWERS AND GIVES YOU SHIT FOR MAKING A LONG-DISTANCE PHONE CALL. BUT, THE POINT IS, YOU JUST MADE A L.D. PHONE CALL AT SOME COMPANIES EXPENSE! NOW, YOU SAY, HOW DO I GET SOME OF THESE CODES? WELL, IF YOU HAVE A PUSHBUTTON PHONE WITHOUT A MODEM, GOOD LUCK! YOU JUST WOULD HAVE TO DO IT MANUALY. BUT IF YOU HAVE A MODEM WITH A TONE LINE (FOR ALL YOU LOSERS THAT DON'T KNOW THAT PULSE IS OLDER THEN YOUR GRANDMA) YOU PRATICALLY HAVE THEM ALREADY. JUST MAKE A DIALER WHICH PHONES THE SWITCHBOARD AND THEN SENDS THOSE BUTTON CODES (JUST MAKE IT DIAL RANDOMLY WHILE IT IS HOOKED UP TO THE SWITCHBOARD). LEAVE IT ON ALL NIGHT, AND CHANCES ARE, YOU WILL HAVE IT IN THE MORNING. BUT, THEN YOU ASK, WHY DON'T MORE PEOPLE HACK AT THEM? WELL, BECAUSE, SOME OF THE SWITCHBOARDS ARE PLAGUED WITH TRACERS. MOST PEOPLE JUST DON'T WANT TO TAKE THE CHANCE OF GETTING BUSTED. UNFORTUNATLY, THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY OF FINDING OUT IF A SWITCHBOARD IS BUGGED OR NOT BEFORE HAND, BUT LIKE THEY SAY, IF THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY, AND BELIEVE ME, THERE IS LOTS OF WILL! SOME PEOPLE HAVE ASKED ME, IS IT POSSIBLE TO CALL BBS'S VIA SWITCHBOARDS. WELL, IT DEPENDS. IF THE SWITCHBOARD IS WAS MADE BEFORE 1979, THE FORGET IT. IT WON'T BE ABLE TO HADLE THE TWO CARRIERS, AND EVEN IF IT COULD, 110 BAUD WOULD BE THE MOST IT COULD HANDLE, BUT WHO GIVES A SHIT, IT IS FREE ISN'T IT. NOW, ON THE OTHER HAND, IF IT WAS MADE AFTER 1980, THE YOU CAN USE IT WITH BBS'S AND THE SORT, WITH 4800 BAUD MAXIMUM. UNFORTUNATLY, THERE ARE STILL ALOT OF "OLD" SWITCH- BOARDS OUT THERE, BUT ARE BEING UPGRADED MORE AND MORE. WELL, THIS CONCLUDES THIS FILE. LOOK FORWARD TO MCI,SPRINT,TELENET HINTS VOL. ][.
