- The Phreak's Vitals:
- ====================
-
- True Definition Of The Phreaker
- -------------------------------
- "Many people think of phone phreaks as slime, out to rip off Bell for
- all she is worth. Nothing could be further from the truth! Granted, there
- are some who get their kicks by making free calls; however, they are not
- true phone phreaks. Real phone phreaks are 'telecommunications hobbyists'
- who experiment, play with, and learn from the phone system. Occasionally,
- this experimenting and a need to communicate with other phreaks, without
- going broke, leads to free calls. The free calls are but a small subset of
- a >TRUE< phone phreak's activities."

-
- The Phone Phreak's Ten Commandments
- -----------------------------------
- I. Box thou not over thine home telephone wires, for those who doest
- will surely bring the wrath of the Chief Special Agent down upon thy head.
- II. Speakest thou not of important matters over thine home telephone
- wires, for to do so is to risk thine right of freedom.
- III. Use not thine own name when speaking to other phreaks, for that
- every third phreak is an FBI agent is well known.
- IV. Let not overly many people know that thy be a phreak, as to do so
- is to use thine own self as a sacrificial lamb.
- V. If thou be in school, strive to get thine self good grades, for the
- authorities well know that scholars never break the law.
- VI. If thou workest, try to be an employee and impressest thine boss
- with thine enthusiasm, for important employees are often saved by their own
- bosses.
- VII. Storest thou not thine stolen goodes in thine own home, for those
- who do are surely non-believers in the Bell System Security Forces, and are
- not long for this world.
- VIII. Attractest thou not the attention of the authorities, as the
- less noticeable thou art, the better.
- IX. Makest sure thine friends are instant amnesiacs and willst not
- remember thou hast called illegally, for their cooperation with the
- authorities willst surely lessen thine time for freedom on this earth.
- X. Supportest thou TAP, as it is thine newsletter, and without it, thy
- work would be far more limited.
