like most of the people I was intersted in hacking at first but now I am more intrested in phreaking .
so my question is : what does it take to be a phreaker ? I am not asking you to teach me how or something ! I am only asking what is the skills that a phreaker should have ? he should know about electronics and how to create circules ? and things like that.
thanks for your time!

But basically now adays all you need is a lineman's set and a pair of cahone's | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 34 Junior Member | Junior Member Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 34 | Gizmo, do you say that because flaws don't exist like they used to, so, we're limited to lineman's sets?
sorcerer, it's always good to know how to hide your phone number and get free calls, and generally exploit the phone system in ways it wasn't intended to be used. it doesn't seem like much has changed from back in the old days, just that we can't use flaws in their routing systems (that I'm aware of) using simple electronics...or whistles.
I would think that would be considered hacking more than anything since everything is controlled by computers these days. | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 Community Owner | Community Owner Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 | Never said flaws didn't exist; lord knows that they do. NyNexPhreak still blueboxes through China from England to call around the world; so it's obvious that they still exist.
Lineman's sets will give a user a basic understanding of how phones work, and will allow them to make calls from a TNI.
And yes, most telephone systems are now moving over to VoIP but they can still tax users on the internet access as it's using their lines or some crap. | | | | Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 616 UGN Super Poster | UGN Super Poster Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 616 | heh, I'D have to say on this topic, no comment. As the phreaking scene with exclusion of a few old school out there is dieing or dead imo. Even with those still "trying" to keep it alive. There's stuff to do, it's just wow, exploit, packet wifi hack, light phreak, steal software, bla bla bla�. This is not, what it was. We all know that, those who were there. But like giz, on the taxing stuff bro, heh, might wanna read the taxing Internet news I posted. It's scary:| ...real scary. The more control a government has, the closer they reach to a dictatorship. You can quote me on that:) Look at that kid that got SS on his [censored] for draws of bush, I mean come ON! He was even in Washington the State, not DC. The SS is doing [censored] out of their jurisdiction, which is, the president, and saying it is in regard to national security. What's next. Hacker's, and Phreakers because their smart are now a national security threat. So while I'm buttering my toast they can break in on me for something I did years ago that they tested for my DNA that they pulled from a Mat outside my house? Yea...our government CAN, and will do that I'd imagine for gain. But have they, or will they? *shrug*...this applies to us all I think. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Freakin, I used to not believe in that, esp back when I was a teen or young teen I believed in the h/p/v/a/c spirit. Which died after 2000.:| ![frown frown](https://undergroundnews.com/forum/images/graemlins/default/frown.gif) How it used to be. Can it ever be the same again?

Imo in a couple years it will be easier. Because things are a changing, like they always have. Hot to cold, cold to Hot. They will always be there. Nothing is inaccessible or uncrackable, nothing is unhackable with your morals/ethics in line, and you can phreak anything you want to learn & to expand possibilities. Finding something is the easy part, learning how it works can be easy or hard, depending on who you are, what you know, and how you learn.

As for what it takes to be a phreaker, i believe it takes time, patience, and an exceeding desire to learn.
