00:00.000 --> 00:21.500
Welcome to the next generation of Hacking Information Exchange with StankDawg and Wintermute.

00:30.000 --> 00:59.600
I see in binary, I speak source code. Step on my toes, I'll post a million game pegs of you in a fag pose. In your digital stance, getting firewalled ho. Cause I'm riding the net in my six foe. I was a dick with my 56. Now with my cable, I'm able to get that stable. On the out, my name is Ace and I'm a Leo. On the digital highway, my name is Neo and I'm a hero. In a flash, I'll school you on burning dream cats. You need some ISOs? Let me through my hard drive rifle.

00:59.600 --> 01:24.720
Our exchange, you could never stifle. In a digital hug, you just caught the love bug. I bootlegged your CD. I caused the fight between Un and Jay-Z. Your CG, it's all gonna be free. Whether we take it by force or we take it nicely. You feel that rattle in your bones? When I tell you we just hacked out Jones. And NASDAQ leaves you flat on your back. Cause I am he who loves to hack and crack. Cause I am he who loves to hack and crack.

01:24.720 --> 01:35.480
This is dedicated to the hackers and criminals. Serial phones, source codes, ISOs, RANs, SIFs, SIFs. This is dedicated to the hackers and crack.

01:35.720 --> 01:44.720
And we are back. Binary Revolution Radio, or BinRev Radio as we like to call it. Episode number nine.

01:45.700 --> 01:46.460
That's a niner there.

01:46.460 --> 01:51.940
And as you heard, we have our regular co-host back on the show. So say hello to the people.

01:52.420 --> 01:53.360
I am dual parallel.

01:53.780 --> 01:54.460
In the house.

01:55.300 --> 01:57.320
In the house. I love women.

01:58.580 --> 02:00.380
Oh, wait a minute. You can't be dual parallel then.

02:00.620 --> 02:01.140
Oh, no.

02:01.420 --> 02:03.260
Oh, he's gonna kill me for that one, isn't he?

02:04.600 --> 02:06.540
No, I'm the world famous Wintermute.

02:06.780 --> 02:10.500
In the house. You see, we stole that from you. We're using that for everybody now.

02:10.640 --> 02:11.200
In the house.

02:11.200 --> 02:19.060
All right. So, oh, crap. You know what? I'm gonna click the timer on right now. It's bad radio to let everybody tell them that I'm timing the show.

02:19.180 --> 02:20.700
I'll give them some, uh, intermission music.

02:21.160 --> 02:24.140
Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop. Boop.

02:24.200 --> 02:26.040
That sounds like The Price is Right or something.

02:26.440 --> 02:28.120
No, no, no. It's some bad elevator.

02:28.340 --> 02:37.600
Ah. All right. Um, you know, I have quite a bit. You know, this might be another one of those episodes where it's just you and I talking about a lot of stuff we've done since it's been a while.

02:37.600 --> 02:37.900
What are the best?

02:37.900 --> 02:48.120
Yeah. I, actually, I like them. I mean, regurgitating news is kind of, I don't know, it's kind of fun sometimes to add to it, but, um, we've got a lot of stuff to talk about today.

02:48.660 --> 02:54.920
Um, I'm gonna jump right in the housekeeping portion of the show, um, which is normally where I talk about email, stuff like that.

02:55.060 --> 02:58.800
Well, actually, this week, what I wanted to talk about is I did a little digging.

02:59.340 --> 03:00.180
Turning into Nick.

03:00.840 --> 03:02.680
Huh? Yeah, I turned into a log dog.

03:02.680 --> 03:08.760
I started digging through my, uh, uh, HTTP logs, my Apache logs, just to see what was going on.

03:09.320 --> 03:19.480
I got a strange, not a strange hit, a few strange hits from club1.whitehouse.gov.

03:21.680 --> 03:22.120
Hmm?

03:22.120 --> 03:29.560
I have no idea what club1, C-L-U-B and the number 1.whitehouse.gov.

03:29.720 --> 03:40.940
Now, I can't get to the site, you know, there's no, uh, web server or anything on it, so I have no idea who, what, or why club1.whitehouse.gov is visiting.

03:40.940 --> 03:48.700
But, hey, welcome aboard, um, don't know what you're looking for, and I did not dig through it, um, to see what exactly they were getting.

03:49.000 --> 03:52.860
But, um, I did get a few visits from them, and I thought, what the hell is that all about?

03:53.820 --> 03:58.040
So, if that's you, by all means, drop me an email, letters at binrev.com, tell me what you're looking for.

03:58.100 --> 03:58.820
Maybe I can help you out.

03:59.860 --> 04:03.440
I also noticed some visits from Tech TV.

04:04.180 --> 04:04.500
Hmm.

04:04.780 --> 04:08.200
Which I don't even freaking get, because my cable sucks, but we won't go there.

04:08.200 --> 04:15.400
Um, we got some visits from Tech TV forums, and so I'm going to, I'm going to give a shout out or a thank you to Sezrun,

04:15.900 --> 04:23.840
who apparently mentioned our site over in the forums at Tech TV, so we got a couple hits from them coming over, so that's very, very cool.

04:24.560 --> 04:29.740
And, the same thing, I noticed some hits from groups.google.com.

04:30.280 --> 04:35.780
And, Google, as everybody, I'm sure, knows Google, they also have a news group archive,

04:35.780 --> 04:40.360
where you can go search through the, in NTP, you can go search through your news groups,

04:40.920 --> 04:45.060
and, um, I noticed I was getting hits from the site.

04:45.140 --> 04:48.540
Now, of course, you wouldn't notice hits from a news group itself, per se,

04:48.780 --> 04:52.080
but if you travel through Google Groups to get to the news groups,

04:52.160 --> 04:55.640
or if you click through Google Groups, the site, it does show up as a link.

04:55.640 --> 05:01.540
So, um, someone was pimping the show in the news group world, so, didn't even really think about that,

05:01.580 --> 05:07.080
but yes, by all means, go out there and spread the word in the news group, spread it on other forums, etc.,

05:07.080 --> 05:08.360
anytime it's appropriate, of course.

05:08.420 --> 05:13.240
We don't want to go spam everybody, but, you know, if you're getting a chance to spread the word, spread the message,

05:13.380 --> 05:15.240
by all means, go do that, so...

05:15.240 --> 05:17.460
I think, I don't even think we should even go spamming.

05:17.880 --> 05:18.420
No, no.

05:18.420 --> 05:24.760
If I start getting a telemarketer phone call, saying, listen to FinRiv Radio, oh, that's the end of it.

05:25.100 --> 05:28.760
Hmm. You know, we would be some pretty evil telemarketers if we did that.

05:29.220 --> 05:30.340
Speaking of telemarketing...

05:30.340 --> 05:32.500
Of course, all telemarketers are evil, but go ahead.

05:32.760 --> 05:37.120
If you haven't signed up for the Do Not Call List, you're listening to this show on the Tuesday,

05:37.280 --> 05:41.380
which would be the 2nd of September, too bad, you've been locked out.

05:41.960 --> 05:43.060
What do you mean, locked out?

05:43.500 --> 05:45.780
Well, when we're taping this, it's Sunday.

05:46.420 --> 05:46.800
Uh-huh.

05:46.800 --> 05:50.340
At midnight tonight is the lockout for the Do Not Call List.

05:50.840 --> 05:51.720
Well, what do you mean, lockout?

05:52.040 --> 05:54.360
They're not going to update the list for some amount of time.

05:55.000 --> 05:58.740
Oh, I think this may be the first deadline as far as getting your name on the list.

05:58.820 --> 05:59.660
I think they do it...

05:59.660 --> 06:01.440
Are they doing it quarterly or something like that?

06:01.620 --> 06:03.900
Yeah, but this is for a little... for some time.

06:04.860 --> 06:05.100
Hmm.

06:05.580 --> 06:12.300
So, unless you like being, uh, buying, or, uh, you like talking to very strange people on the phone.

06:12.800 --> 06:15.400
Well, but like you said, by the time we air, it's going to be too late.

06:15.400 --> 06:17.400
Too late? Well, sucks. Sharks.

06:17.680 --> 06:20.400
Great. Good job. Thanks for reminding everybody last week.

06:20.880 --> 06:21.840
Yeah. Well, hey.

06:22.400 --> 06:25.460
Now, they can still sign up for it, correct? I think the website will be there.

06:25.520 --> 06:27.800
It's just, you won't get applied to the global list.

06:27.860 --> 06:34.500
You won't be put on that big list for three, four months, or however long before they do the next batch process, you know?

06:34.500 --> 06:35.400
Good, exactly.

06:35.920 --> 06:36.080
Hmm.

06:37.520 --> 06:45.600
Uh, yeah, anyway, um, so, I know who posted that out to Google Groups, so, um, Kleptic, thanks a lot for that.

06:45.680 --> 06:48.500
I saw who it was posted under, and I assumed that was you.

06:48.960 --> 06:52.200
So, um, thanks for spreading the word, everybody.

06:52.200 --> 07:06.280
And speaking of pimping, um, Gamer, Games and More Entertainment Radio, they pimped us on their last show, so everybody check them out, www.hwhq.com.

07:06.480 --> 07:07.740
Go check out Gamer Radio.

07:07.740 --> 07:10.740
Gamer Radio is back from his hellacious road trip.

07:10.920 --> 07:15.600
I still, it's a shame we couldn't hook up when he came down here, but c'est la vie, I guess.

07:15.700 --> 07:17.140
But definitely go check out the show.

07:17.900 --> 07:23.760
Um, and, you know, the other thing I wanted to mention, which just blew my mind, Mute.

07:24.580 --> 07:29.640
You know, Hack TV, one of our projects that's been long, long going, long overdue.

07:30.460 --> 07:32.160
I finally put up a pilot episode.

07:32.160 --> 07:39.040
Finally was able to work with Psy2, and getting some of the, uh, graphics together, getting some of the, um, the video working and everything.

07:39.780 --> 07:42.640
And, um, when I say working with, I mean he finally did it.

07:42.660 --> 07:45.700
I really didn't do a whole lot with it, other than some advice and ideas.

07:46.340 --> 07:47.840
But, I put that up.

07:47.900 --> 07:51.740
It's just, again, I've mentioned before, it's just some of the videos we've already made public.

07:52.320 --> 07:56.380
And I put it up just as a sampler, a teaser, just to let people know what was up.

07:56.960 --> 08:01.940
And it just absolutely blew my mind how many hits that got.

08:03.040 --> 08:09.840
Um, the only place I've mentioned it is on the show, on the shows, over on RFA, of course we've been mentioning it, in the forums.

08:09.960 --> 08:14.100
I really haven't mentioned it anywhere outside of those, those two places.

08:14.300 --> 08:16.260
Because, A, I've never had the opportunity.

08:16.440 --> 08:18.320
And, B, it's way, way too soon.

08:18.380 --> 08:23.500
And I don't like to announce stuff until it's ready or out.

08:24.040 --> 08:28.020
You know, so I don't like to commit and get people's hopes up, even though I was real bad about it on Hack TV.

08:28.660 --> 08:33.980
So, um, I haven't mentioned it anywhere, yet that got more hits than BinRev Radio.

08:33.980 --> 08:44.200
So, we're not only getting people who listen to the show and know about it, downloading it, and people from the forums, but it had easily more people than I could account for.

08:44.340 --> 08:46.200
So, I'm a little confused.

08:46.320 --> 08:48.100
I don't know where a lot of those hits are coming from.

08:48.160 --> 08:49.240
I might have to investigate it.

08:49.240 --> 08:52.460
But, it's very cool that there is interest in it.

08:53.060 --> 08:55.900
I had no idea that there was going to be that much interest in Hack TV.

08:56.040 --> 08:56.940
I knew it would be a little bit.

08:57.000 --> 09:00.120
I thought it would be like a little niche thing, a little underground kind of deal.

09:00.480 --> 09:02.840
But, it was a lot of hits that I wasn't expecting.

09:02.980 --> 09:05.140
So, that, I thought, was really, really cool.

09:05.940 --> 09:09.000
So, it kind of gets me rededicated to try to get some stuff done.

09:09.080 --> 09:11.060
Now, I am going to do a lot of filming this week.

09:11.100 --> 09:12.300
I've already planned on it.

09:12.740 --> 09:14.620
I already got some ideas in mind.

09:14.620 --> 09:21.940
Mute, you and I have talked about some things, and Duel, and we're all going to be working on filming here over the next couple of weeks.

09:21.960 --> 09:24.820
Now that we've got the ideas out, we've got the tech part of it done.

09:25.000 --> 09:27.100
So, definitely moving forward.

09:27.240 --> 09:28.360
So, I'm happy about that.

09:31.040 --> 09:32.920
Now, Mute.

09:33.140 --> 09:37.020
Actually, why don't we jump to you because we had a follow-up.

09:37.040 --> 09:41.080
I had a follow-up question I wanted you to follow up on from last week.

09:41.260 --> 09:43.900
I made an email from Total Blackout last week.

09:44.620 --> 09:46.560
About our part 15 idea.

09:48.660 --> 09:49.240
Uh-oh.

09:50.020 --> 10:07.580
I had an email that was questioning whether building a device that would block RFID frequencies was, in and of itself, illegal because it would cause interference.

10:07.580 --> 10:10.920
So, I'm not sure that I interpret the rule correctly.

10:11.020 --> 10:21.560
So, I was wondering if you could explain, is the act of building a RFID blocker, a personal RFID blocker, is that illegal?

10:21.700 --> 10:26.240
And could you kind of re-go over that and simplify it so that it's clearly what can and can't be done?

10:26.240 --> 10:31.020
Well, basically that bandwidth, that range, is unlicensed.

10:31.020 --> 10:38.900
So, anyone can believe, now, no lawsuits pending here, but you can do what you want with it.

10:39.580 --> 10:42.360
And, well, that being said, there is also a limit to what you can do.

10:42.440 --> 10:45.060
You can't go over a certain amount of wattage.

10:45.540 --> 10:46.720
I believe that's one watt.

10:46.720 --> 10:52.760
So, you can intentionally cause interference?

10:53.000 --> 10:55.440
I guess that's the question, as long as it's under one watt?

10:55.860 --> 10:56.120
Yes.

10:56.320 --> 11:06.480
Well, it slides into a story that kind of proves or backs up my theory, is that a company, RSA Security, I believe.

11:06.820 --> 11:07.380
Cha-ching.

11:07.880 --> 11:12.620
Cha-ching-ching is going to start producing RFID blockers.

11:12.620 --> 11:17.620
Now, if they're going to produce it, and they've said they're going to produce it, well, it kind of has to be legal.

11:19.340 --> 11:26.420
So, yes, by them producing something, it is legal for someone to make that.

11:26.860 --> 11:30.120
And, you know, the interesting, let me, here's the actual headline.

11:30.240 --> 11:34.580
It says, the labs at RSA Security on Wednesday, this was Wednesday of last week,

11:34.580 --> 11:43.600
on outlined plans for a technology they call blocker tags, which are similar in size and cost to radio frequency identification, RFID tags,

11:43.840 --> 11:48.700
but disrupt the transmission of information to scanning devices and thwart the collection of data.

11:49.740 --> 11:52.480
Blocker, okay, now, first of all, that was Wednesday of last week.

11:53.560 --> 11:55.580
Our show aired Tuesday of last week.

11:55.620 --> 11:56.800
Now, I'm not saying anything.

11:57.220 --> 11:57.640
Uh-oh.

11:57.720 --> 11:58.860
I'm not hinting at anything.

11:58.980 --> 12:00.760
I'm just saying coincidence.

12:00.760 --> 12:06.440
Anyway, the other part of this that I thought was kind of amazing or interesting was,

12:06.580 --> 12:14.400
they go on and it says, blocker and RFID tags are about the size of a grain of sand and cost around 10 cents.

12:15.620 --> 12:17.080
Dude, sign me up.

12:17.160 --> 12:18.800
10 cents to protect my privacy?

12:19.820 --> 12:22.360
I'll, hey, I'll go ahead and chip in for all of DDP.

12:22.940 --> 12:23.880
Not a problem, man.

12:23.900 --> 12:24.920
I'll put that on my tab.

12:25.580 --> 12:26.980
I'll buy one for each of you.

12:28.380 --> 12:29.180
Aren't I generous?

12:29.640 --> 12:30.700
Oh, totally, dude.

12:30.760 --> 12:34.900
10 cents is what it costs to protect your privacy from these things.

12:35.000 --> 12:37.540
I think that's, now, that's what it costs to make and manufacture.

12:37.660 --> 12:39.920
They'll probably end up selling them for, what, 20 bucks or something?

12:39.920 --> 12:40.280
Oh, yeah.

12:40.520 --> 12:41.580
Something stupid like that.

12:41.700 --> 12:45.460
So, still, finding out how to make your own and possibly us doing that.

12:45.720 --> 12:47.000
Screw the RSA labs.

12:47.440 --> 12:53.000
Embed these into other things such as watches or really anything they wanted to.

12:53.000 --> 13:01.460
Yeah, every time you buy a watch, you're going to have to come home and pry out the freaking privacy detector tag so you can get around freely.

13:01.980 --> 13:07.540
It's like, I think, pretty soon, you're going to see, like, a few years, maybe, if this ever goes anywhere.

13:08.220 --> 13:12.520
You'll have, like, a little symbol on the side that says RFID protected or something.

13:13.360 --> 13:15.340
RFID inside, like the Intel inside logo.

13:15.340 --> 13:20.120
Yeah, we'll have both, like, this is armed with an RFID device, and it's also blocked in RFID.

13:21.220 --> 13:22.560
What a coincidence.

13:23.040 --> 13:23.180
Yeah.

13:23.280 --> 13:24.100
What an irony.

13:24.100 --> 13:27.480
You know, actually, this is the kind of thing.

13:27.540 --> 13:35.680
I'm going to segue into, I don't know if I mentioned this on the show, actually, so if this is a recap, then I guess, sorry.

13:35.940 --> 13:38.620
But I signed up for a class this semester.

13:38.740 --> 13:40.580
I don't even know if I told you this yet, Mute.

13:41.460 --> 13:43.760
As everybody knows, I've graduated.

13:44.080 --> 13:48.320
There's no, you know, I'm not really going back to school for anything other than knowledge.

13:49.040 --> 13:53.540
And there was a class listed this semester that caught my interest, so I signed up for it.

13:53.540 --> 13:55.160
I'm not getting much credit for it.

13:55.180 --> 13:56.960
I'm getting credit, but it's not going to count towards anything.

13:57.160 --> 13:59.400
It's pretty much just going to learn.

13:59.960 --> 14:03.780
And the class that drew me back is called Cyber Law.

14:05.020 --> 14:13.760
So, Cyber Law is kind of a new development, a new thing, obviously, because we have so many conflicts between old existing laws.

14:13.760 --> 14:19.040
But in the new world, in the, in the, the, I hate the word cyber in general.

14:19.140 --> 14:30.760
But in the cyber world, that they're kind of branching off and trying to study laws and how laws should be changed and stuff to account for the internet and other online.

14:31.500 --> 14:34.040
And, well, not just online, but technology in general.

14:34.040 --> 14:36.040
So, this is something that interests me.

14:36.140 --> 14:37.040
So, I signed up for this.

14:37.100 --> 14:39.660
So, every Wednesday night, I'm taking this class.

14:40.400 --> 14:49.100
So, if people are interested, I can start bringing some of the stories and the stuff we talk about in class and bring them up on the show.

14:49.460 --> 14:55.260
So, if anybody's interested in hearing some of that stuff, obviously, this is a three hours a week class.

14:55.680 --> 14:58.660
It's going to be way too much for us to talk about on a one hour a week show.

14:58.760 --> 15:03.100
But I can probably summarize, bring up some interesting points and topics to consider.

15:03.760 --> 15:07.660
But if you, if that sounds interesting, post that in the forums or email me and tell me.

15:07.780 --> 15:11.640
And I will start bringing my notes and textbook and stuff home.

15:12.100 --> 15:14.240
And we'll talk about some of this on the show each week.

15:14.680 --> 15:19.540
Then when you get up to ask a question, the teacher will say, wait a minute, I know that voice.

15:19.980 --> 15:20.880
Yeah, exactly.

15:21.400 --> 15:22.440
I know you, dammit.

15:22.500 --> 15:24.280
Aren't you the binary revolution guy?

15:25.260 --> 15:27.220
Aren't you the binary revolution guy?

15:27.220 --> 15:28.620
I'll say, no, no, no, that's winter mute.

15:28.680 --> 15:29.160
That's not me.

15:29.340 --> 15:30.220
No, no, no, no.

15:30.400 --> 15:31.100
That's dual parallel.

15:34.080 --> 15:37.080
You know, one thing, this was the first class last week.

15:37.200 --> 15:42.460
So, you don't, you know, basically it was a lot of overview, a lot of topics we're going to cover in general terms.

15:42.860 --> 15:44.000
We didn't go into a lot of detail.

15:44.000 --> 15:54.840
But the one thing that just smacked me in the face that I was reminded of about lawyers and is the fact that lawyers,

15:54.840 --> 16:03.020
lawyers are, in my opinion, of course, way too far removed from ethics.

16:03.020 --> 16:11.860
I really, really, really think they need to emphasize ethics more in the law community and law school and in general.

16:12.960 --> 16:16.760
You know, and there are, don't get me wrong, there are good lawyers.

16:16.760 --> 16:18.260
I know some good lawyers.

16:18.400 --> 16:25.340
But there are an overwhelmingly large number of bad lawyers, ambulance chasers, anybody trying to turn a buck.

16:26.040 --> 16:30.360
And it's those lawyers that unfortunately give everyone else a bad name.

16:30.400 --> 16:31.880
And I guess it's probably the same with police.

16:32.000 --> 16:37.400
A lot of people hate police because there's, you know, there's quite a few out there that are, you know, not good cops.

16:37.440 --> 16:38.200
Let's put it that way.

16:38.240 --> 16:39.780
But there are also some good ones mixed in.

16:39.780 --> 16:41.500
So anyway, I digress on that.

16:41.880 --> 16:47.540
But going back to this class, it just kind of smacked me in the face the way they talked about things.

16:47.600 --> 16:50.940
And they only talked about the legalities of some of these things.

16:50.980 --> 16:52.840
And they didn't mention right or wrong.

16:53.620 --> 16:56.140
And, again, I'm not going to go into too much detail.

16:56.260 --> 16:58.980
Let's see if anybody's interested first and maybe we can bring this up on a later show.

16:58.980 --> 17:14.660
But one quick example was, you know, they mentioned how to, well, it was talk about where laws could be prosecuted,

17:14.780 --> 17:24.520
where they could be, who would be in charge of prosecuting or the legal aspect of anything online.

17:24.820 --> 17:26.580
And the term is jurisdiction.

17:26.580 --> 17:29.540
Who has jurisdiction in an online world?

17:29.960 --> 17:31.180
And trying to define that.

17:31.520 --> 17:36.760
And the name Napster immediately came up, of course, even though they're long gone.

17:37.220 --> 17:41.440
But they used that and they used some of the other file sharing and explained, you know,

17:42.000 --> 17:47.580
where does jurisdiction come into play if you, a person in, I don't know, New York,

17:47.980 --> 17:55.160
download a file from someone in California through a server that's located in Norway, etc., etc., etc.

17:55.160 --> 17:57.320
So that was one of the first things that was, again, it was general.

17:57.420 --> 17:58.280
We didn't get into detail.

17:58.360 --> 17:59.080
They don't have answers.

17:59.620 --> 18:02.820
But it was discussed where this falls.

18:03.500 --> 18:12.020
Well, the instructor, a very nice lady, actually, you know, came out and said that from the legal aspect of it,

18:12.020 --> 18:15.300
there is some definitions, and we're going to go into them over the semester,

18:15.300 --> 18:30.380
but the ethical matter of us infringing, or not infringing, of us forcing our laws and our thoughts to overseas and other people

18:30.380 --> 18:37.160
about how legally we can and will pursue stuff like that because of our copyright laws in this country.

18:37.900 --> 18:45.760
And the consideration of ethics or respect or whatever you want to call it to other countries really has no bearing in the mind of the law.

18:46.120 --> 18:47.820
And I thought that was pretty sad.

18:47.820 --> 18:55.900
I mean, ethics, I mean, she kind of admitted that, you know, if someone from overseas or you download from someone from overseas or vice versa,

18:56.440 --> 18:57.520
there's that gray area.

18:57.680 --> 19:00.760
You're not technically, you know, you can't enforce the laws on them.

19:01.360 --> 19:05.920
But as far as a lawyer is concerned, yes, they will sue that person.

19:06.020 --> 19:09.660
They will go through whatever it takes and try to enforce these laws because by the letter of the law,

19:09.660 --> 19:16.920
they may have loopholes or tricks that they can get them, even though they may not rightfully have an ethical reason to do it.

19:18.140 --> 19:25.500
So, anyway, that just kind of, you know, not upset me, but I had forgotten since it's been a while since I had some law classes.

19:25.500 --> 19:30.680
That's kind of interesting because just today, I think today or yesterday,

19:31.260 --> 19:38.600
Charmin Networks, a la Kazaa, has just popped back in the news like they've ever really left the news.

19:38.600 --> 19:47.260
Yeah, but they're asked that Google, Google, our best friend, to block the search of Kazaa Lite.

19:48.500 --> 19:50.000
Yeah, I saw that headline.

19:50.140 --> 19:50.420
Did they?

19:51.360 --> 19:53.420
I did try searching it.

19:54.040 --> 19:55.280
And you'll still get the software.

19:56.400 --> 19:57.760
I mean, you're not going to stop it.

19:57.920 --> 20:03.900
There's like the second hyperlink is a place to download it.

20:04.080 --> 20:04.940
You're not going to stop that.

20:04.940 --> 20:10.400
But at the bottom of the page, it just says, this search has been filtered because of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

20:11.080 --> 20:11.980
See, that's just pathetic.

20:12.480 --> 20:17.240
If that's not an invasion of, I don't even want to, you know what?

20:17.320 --> 20:18.700
It's an invasion of privacy.

20:19.100 --> 20:21.240
We're not an invasion of privacy, but it's just like over the main ground.

20:21.640 --> 20:22.380
First Amendment.

20:22.580 --> 20:22.800
Hello.

20:22.800 --> 20:35.280
It's ironic because, first of all, they're only doing this because they're supposed to be really soon rolling out with a legal version or a paid version.

20:35.480 --> 20:37.360
They're trying to stop these people over here.

20:37.920 --> 20:44.560
They're all about free media and everything, but they're going to stop these people over here from making a cooler version.

20:44.560 --> 20:46.500
What's going on?

20:47.120 --> 20:49.600
You know, they're going to try to stop.

20:50.240 --> 20:53.460
And that's what they, I still am amazed that they haven't realized this yet.

20:53.520 --> 20:55.940
They haven't realized it since Napster, which is years ago.

20:56.380 --> 21:00.240
They are not going to stop peer-to-peer file sharing.

21:00.360 --> 21:01.880
Go back and listen to RFA.

21:02.040 --> 21:07.120
Listen to Radio Freak America back when I first started, I don't know how long ago, and I've said this all along.

21:07.120 --> 21:15.380
You will not stop peer-to-peer file sharing ever, ever, ever.

21:15.580 --> 21:19.980
Mark my words, this day in history, you will never stop it.

21:20.140 --> 21:23.780
For every one you kill, five shall stand in its wake.

21:24.080 --> 21:25.680
You will not stop it.

21:27.320 --> 21:28.240
Aye, aye, aye.

21:29.040 --> 21:31.620
Because whatever, you could kill the Internet.

21:31.760 --> 21:33.160
People are going to still burn CDs.

21:34.680 --> 21:35.240
It's...

21:35.240 --> 21:35.920
And nail them.

21:35.920 --> 21:37.300
The Internet's not going anywhere.

21:37.740 --> 21:40.380
Yeah, obviously, but yeah, as an example.

21:40.640 --> 21:40.980
Right.

21:41.820 --> 21:45.160
No, it's just, you know, people just are not...

21:45.160 --> 21:49.240
And, you know, this is one of the reasons that we, that I love the name Binary Revolution.

21:49.460 --> 21:54.300
We are not standing for the limitations that you guys are going to try to force on us.

21:54.360 --> 21:59.360
When I say you guys, I mean the legal community, the government, stuff like that.

21:59.420 --> 22:02.920
You're going to try to put these things in looking out for the interests of big businesses

22:02.920 --> 22:04.960
instead of looking out for the interests of the people.

22:04.960 --> 22:05.900
Well, guess what?

22:05.980 --> 22:07.200
We, the people, say, fuck you.

22:07.920 --> 22:08.400
Damn it.

22:08.640 --> 22:09.560
Damn it, I used the F word.

22:09.660 --> 22:10.160
Well, you know what?

22:10.180 --> 22:10.800
I do say that.

22:10.860 --> 22:11.340
Fuck you.

22:11.860 --> 22:12.300
I do.

22:12.620 --> 22:16.360
We are going to take this world and keep this world for ourselves.

22:17.340 --> 22:21.620
The cyber world, which again, I hate that world, is ours.

22:21.620 --> 22:23.240
We created it.

22:23.300 --> 22:24.460
We made it what it was.

22:24.800 --> 22:26.080
Well, us and all the pornographers.

22:26.300 --> 22:34.860
But, you know, still, I'm not about to roll over and let the online community be pulled down

22:34.860 --> 22:38.160
and dragged down the same way as the real world community.

22:38.160 --> 22:39.900
Anyway, I'm going to get off soapbox.

22:39.980 --> 22:41.020
Let's go back to something tech.

22:43.460 --> 22:43.860
Interzone.

22:44.940 --> 22:46.320
Yeah, Interzone, actually.

22:46.420 --> 22:47.560
I mentioned this last week.

22:47.560 --> 22:58.240
And I've been communicating with Rocket about some information that I found on their legal problems.

22:58.340 --> 23:02.100
Again, go to Interzone and check it out.

23:02.200 --> 23:04.640
Z-O-Z-O-N-E, not Z-O-N-E.

23:05.140 --> 23:07.060
And check them out, interzone.com.

23:07.660 --> 23:09.820
And I actually added their conference.

23:09.940 --> 23:12.120
Their next conference is in April of 2004.

23:12.440 --> 23:14.460
So it's not too awful far away.

23:14.680 --> 23:15.660
It's less than a year away.

23:15.840 --> 23:19.040
So I'm actually considering going to that.

23:20.440 --> 23:24.000
Maybe we can all meet up there or something like that, a presentation or something like that.

23:24.000 --> 23:27.440
But I sent them some information.

23:27.620 --> 23:32.880
He's going to put together a PowerPoint presentation and send it to some people

23:32.880 --> 23:38.720
and try to further their legal worries, their legal woes, which, again, I've gotten into before.

23:38.820 --> 23:40.500
So I'm not going to waste time rehashing them.

23:41.480 --> 23:42.540
But good luck to them.

23:43.200 --> 23:46.520
Hopefully the little bit of information I gave helped, which was very little.

23:46.620 --> 23:47.680
But hopefully that will help.

23:49.900 --> 23:53.120
And I guess it's really settled.

23:53.120 --> 23:54.980
It's over and done with to a certain extent.

23:54.980 --> 24:03.260
But now the act is getting the word out to see what happened and how people were treated.

24:03.480 --> 24:05.020
And let's not let it happen again.

24:05.640 --> 24:06.300
You know what I'm saying?

24:06.460 --> 24:10.540
So even though they may have settled and have it over and done with, it's not over yet.

24:10.900 --> 24:12.060
So good luck to them.

24:12.140 --> 24:15.740
Hopefully they can get the word out and get some people's minds opened.

24:15.740 --> 24:23.020
Now, you, since you've been back, you know, actually, this is going to be the first episode.

24:23.160 --> 24:29.640
I guess we should take a moment here and announce that Binary Revolution Magazine version 1.2 is now available.

24:30.200 --> 24:32.940
I already mentioned it online, and people who have been to the site will notice.

24:33.120 --> 24:37.520
But if you haven't already, go check it out, magazine.binrev.com.

24:37.600 --> 24:40.900
You will see the latest edition is now available.

24:40.900 --> 24:44.500
And in that edition, Wintermute, I think you have a contribution.

24:44.620 --> 24:45.140
Is that correct?

24:45.620 --> 24:46.720
Oh, yeah.

24:47.040 --> 24:48.020
And what is that?

24:48.040 --> 24:48.200
I have two.

24:48.300 --> 24:49.060
I thought one but two.

24:49.440 --> 24:49.820
Do you?

24:50.460 --> 24:52.840
Well, the secret image.

24:53.680 --> 24:54.220
Oh, yeah.

24:54.300 --> 24:54.960
I forgot about that.

24:55.000 --> 24:55.600
Don't give that away.

24:56.040 --> 24:56.580
Well, I can't.

24:56.660 --> 24:58.760
You have the inside back cover, too.

24:58.820 --> 24:59.740
We'll just leave it like that.

25:00.080 --> 25:00.580
Oh, yeah.

25:00.680 --> 25:02.160
Well, we're talking about the article.

25:02.440 --> 25:05.340
It's actually a follow-up to your 2600 article.

25:05.860 --> 25:07.660
So why don't you tell us a little bit about that?

25:08.120 --> 25:13.680
Or if anyone doesn't remember, I think it was, what, Spring 2K2?

25:13.680 --> 25:27.940
Of, yeah, Spring 2K2-ish, of, of, of, 2K3, of 2600, the 20th volume, or has me headlining with the Best Buy and Securities.

25:27.940 --> 25:29.260
And I wrote an article.

25:29.620 --> 25:36.400
Best Buy basically had some horrible stuff on almost all their computers with access to their internal network.

25:37.120 --> 25:38.540
And I had to kind of show them that.

25:38.620 --> 25:40.740
And within a few days, they kind of patched that hole.

25:40.740 --> 25:48.100
And I came back, fed up, I didn't have as much insight as I had before because they really did kind of hit it hard.

25:49.120 --> 25:51.360
I got, I had some people, I talked to some people.

25:51.680 --> 25:54.340
They were very helpful in showing me what happened, what they do.

25:54.860 --> 25:57.720
And I wrote the article about it in the 1.2.

25:57.940 --> 25:59.580
Yeah, that article really cracked down.

25:59.660 --> 26:01.780
They made a lot of changes because of that article, didn't they?

26:01.780 --> 26:18.200
What I've heard, and from my two inside sources, and they've been, they've been duly noted in my article, they, what happened was, and I kind of had the same theory, what was going on, if you saw, if anyone actually came up and saw how bad it was, they would really start laughing.

26:18.200 --> 26:28.260
Because it was, there was problems with permissions on drives, there was caches, there was so much, there's so much stuff strewn everywhere, it had to be fixed.

26:28.700 --> 26:36.220
So within a few days, what they did was, they revamped, they also needed to because it was getting horrible, it was getting old.

26:36.220 --> 26:51.540
So first of all, they revamped the tool, the employee toolkit to include a password, which is different from a, the employee password for, say, going to the cash register and logging in and being a cashier.

26:51.980 --> 26:54.140
So that's all new, and they reached all the links.

26:54.720 --> 26:58.860
So what was basically, I was giving them a swift kick in the ass, I guess you could say.

26:59.760 --> 27:00.160
Upgrade.

27:00.540 --> 27:05.300
There's an eventual upgrade, but I kind of said, do it now because you see your problem.

27:05.300 --> 27:09.740
Right, and you know, people have mentioned in the forums that now, I mean, they're paranoid.

27:10.300 --> 27:18.580
Somebody had mentioned in the forums, a couple of people, that they went into Best Buy, and they were like, followed, or they were, you know, they jumped out of the little display, which is super easy.

27:19.060 --> 27:23.180
And they were like, what did they say, the computers are not for hacking or something like that?

27:23.340 --> 27:23.780
Yeah, what did they say?

27:23.780 --> 27:25.060
I mean, they're paranoid now.

27:25.240 --> 27:28.540
It was a, it was a mollusk, old badass, blowing this radio.

27:29.220 --> 27:32.980
Uh, he, uh, he said that the guy came up to him, hey, these computers aren't for hacking.

27:32.980 --> 27:35.180
I had that happen to me, after the article.

27:35.500 --> 27:35.860
Mm-hmm.

27:36.220 --> 27:41.800
Maybe it wasn't, um, let me think, what was it, it was, maybe it wasn't released yet, but I didn't go back there.

27:42.160 --> 27:43.660
It was that, it was that in-between period.

27:43.900 --> 27:44.240
Mm-hmm.

27:44.480 --> 27:48.060
And it was, uh, I came in there, and I was playing around on a standalone machine.

27:48.540 --> 27:52.500
I was going to copy all their, uh, their demo software off, and I'm kind of messing around.

27:52.560 --> 27:55.680
I find the source code for that, in that, um, interactive demo.

27:55.960 --> 27:56.360
Right.

27:56.360 --> 28:07.540
And I had, like, fucking, well, I don't know, I was going to add something funny, and the girl, she's walking by, and she sees notepads open, and she stops, cocks her head, looks at me, and, like, what are you doing?

28:08.580 --> 28:10.560
And I'm, like, oh, you know, just checking it out.

28:11.040 --> 28:17.360
She's, like, oh, you look really like what you're doing, and that scares, you really, she said, you really look like you know what you're doing, and that scares me.

28:17.760 --> 28:18.020
Uh-huh.

28:18.500 --> 28:20.180
And I'm, like, don't worry about it.

28:20.180 --> 28:21.060
And she's, like, okay, whatever.

28:21.860 --> 28:22.100
Hmm.

28:23.000 --> 28:28.660
And then after that, you know, it's just, I don't even know what they're going through these people's heads.

28:29.400 --> 28:39.820
Well, now that they've been called out, you know, call them on the carpet, they, they're trying to watch their computers now, they're trying to eyeball everybody, and instead of fixing the problem.

28:39.820 --> 28:44.640
Well, actually, to their credit, it sounds like they are trying to fix and do some things, but, um.

28:44.640 --> 28:50.340
We got this, uh, we got something from a, from a little, uh, security, security list.

28:50.540 --> 29:07.700
Yeah, actually, besides your, besides your Best Buy revisited article in this episode, or this issue of Binary Revolution Magazine, besides your follow-up article, there was also a disclosure made, um, that, you probably read more about this than I do, so why don't you talk about it also?

29:07.700 --> 29:24.720
What happened was, uh, this guy, he comes in, first of all, this does require a password username, login, to, to execute, and basically what he does is he gets in, he, uh, uh, violates the, the URL, like, if you have Internet Explorer open, if you're using your Internet Explorer, but anyways.

29:24.720 --> 29:31.980
You can type in, you can type in, it's basically, you can type in C colon slash, and you'll get a, the C, CD, C drive, on your hard drive.

29:32.780 --> 29:39.500
Well, he's just saying that you can do this, and you can open up a command, command, like, kind of like getting a shell on, uh, on, on Linux or Unix.

29:39.500 --> 29:55.000
Well, the problem is, you can't get to that unless you have permissions for that drive, so this is kind of useless unless you have the same vulnerability, the same accessibility as I did, where there were, the permissions weren't set correctly, and you could do whatever you wanted.

29:56.060 --> 30:00.260
So this really isn't a threat, unless the permissions are set correctly.

30:00.260 --> 30:22.420
Well, now, if you look at the timing of when he reported this, it started on May 5th of 2003, and he just now finally released it because supposedly he notified Best Buy, and they didn't do anything about it, and they didn't do anything, and they were told they were not serious, and it wasn't going to do anything, so he finally disclosed it three months later, it looks like.

30:22.700 --> 30:24.480
So back on May 5th...

30:24.480 --> 30:26.220
That was when my article came out.

30:27.160 --> 30:28.420
Hmm, isn't that interesting?

30:28.420 --> 30:43.340
So it's like, so it's like he, he kind of went along, maybe, with what I did, but to his credit, I bet he's a very smart guy, he did go a little farther than I did, he found this, the plaintiff's password disclosure, he found some passwords to their drives, so I didn't, I didn't, I didn't dig that far.

30:43.880 --> 30:55.220
Yeah, now see, when you and I were working on this project, I originally found the same thing, then that's how I found a lot of the stuff that I was doing on my Best Buy computers was by rooting down to the C drive.

30:55.520 --> 30:55.760
Yeah.

30:55.760 --> 31:08.800
And, you know, I just played around with some silly things that tagged the machines, thank dog was here, some harmless little things like that, but yeah, I found some inconsistencies within one machine to another machine in the same store.

31:09.440 --> 31:22.360
So, I don't know, maybe some of them still haven't been patched or fixed yet, or had the, you know, the authentication applied to them, so I guess it's a case-by-case basis, but in general, you're absolutely right, they've locked all that stuff down, as far as we can tell.

31:22.360 --> 31:30.720
Yeah, but this is definitely cool what he did here, he found all the passwords to the, the drives that are mounted on boot, that's kind of cool, I think.

31:31.080 --> 31:31.240
Hmm.

31:32.140 --> 31:32.920
Yeah, that's fine.

31:32.920 --> 31:38.700
But there is so much, the, the, the network is global, or not, I mean, at least continental.

31:39.240 --> 31:39.640
Mm-hmm.

31:39.900 --> 31:42.260
So from any store, you can jump to any other store.

31:42.260 --> 31:50.840
Yeah, I know, um, when I was looking at it, you could, um, access inventory and stuff like that, see where, anywhere in stock.

31:51.300 --> 32:01.800
It was, because you go in, I did a, you know, a network neighborhood, and you could see every other domain, so it starts at Best Buy 00001, all the way through all their numbers.

32:02.540 --> 32:06.700
Was that, just as a guess, was that, like, by their store number, Best Buy 432?

32:06.700 --> 32:07.720
Yeah, it is by their store number, yeah.

32:07.720 --> 32:08.380
Yeah, figures.

32:08.900 --> 32:09.080
Yeah.

32:09.540 --> 32:10.340
Gee, surprise.

32:10.340 --> 32:12.880
So, hey, and I got another piece of, uh, a tidbit.

32:13.120 --> 32:13.800
All right, shoot.

32:14.120 --> 32:21.420
All right, we got an, uh, Office Max, Office Depot, don't get me confused, just go to one of them, go to both of them, I don't care, they're both fun.

32:22.040 --> 32:27.860
Anyways, that was one, one of them today, cruising, cruising, we needed a printer, we needed some, we needed some stuff.

32:28.360 --> 32:31.560
Anyways, I'm, I'm digging around, and, well, of course, I got computers there.

32:32.060 --> 32:34.200
You don't, you don't sell computers today, you're in the dark ages.

32:34.800 --> 32:40.120
So, just messing around, and, you know, I find a computer, and I'm typing up, you know, just throwing some hands at it.

32:40.120 --> 32:41.340
You don't know what's going to happen, guys.

32:42.140 --> 32:48.020
And, uh, and, and, it's doing anything, I hit a, did an ATM in a different state start spitting money into the store?

32:48.020 --> 32:48.480
I started spitting on money.

32:48.740 --> 32:49.860
That's stupid, man.

32:50.000 --> 32:50.880
Can't do that.

32:51.000 --> 32:52.020
All right, I'm going to stop there.

32:52.020 --> 32:59.380
Um, what, uh, what happened was, I hit escape, I was doing a control, shift, escape, trying to, you know, get some, get some stuff going.

32:59.920 --> 33:05.180
And, escape would give me a password prompt, and I'm like, hmm, gets my eyebrow raised.

33:05.580 --> 33:07.740
Well, I kind of stopped there, got it, stopped at my tracks.

33:08.120 --> 33:14.140
But I did scroll, like, there's a, it's a nice interface that says, like, do this, do that, do this, do that, and it's all for consumers.

33:14.140 --> 33:22.860
But you scroll down, and you get some links to, like, some administrative stuff, and I click one, and a box comes up, uh, username, password.

33:23.000 --> 33:24.180
I'm like, well, what it could be.

33:24.520 --> 33:29.260
Well, I'm a little taller than the average person, so I look, and, oh, what's on the monitor?

33:30.340 --> 33:31.240
Username and password?

33:31.240 --> 33:37.140
Password, password, on top of the monitor, where you can't normally see, unless you, like, creep up.

33:37.540 --> 33:43.900
And this is the same thing, I've had this at Best Buy, where they kept the password to one of their, their screens, right on front of the monitor.

33:45.120 --> 33:45.360
Hmm.

33:45.460 --> 33:46.480
In clear view.

33:47.040 --> 33:53.220
This is, if they thought, like, oh, no one will notice this little sticky note here, that's not the same color as the computer, and it has to have a lettering.

33:53.400 --> 33:55.240
So I typed that in, and yeah, sure enough, it got in.

33:55.880 --> 33:56.280
Hmm.

33:56.280 --> 34:03.540
Hmm. Well, see, they don't think that most people are going to be competent enough to know where to put that password and things like that, so.

34:04.000 --> 34:08.060
See, the idea we give them credit, you know, they put it in a little weird, a little weird spot, you know.

34:09.860 --> 34:12.440
Well, I don't know how much credit that deserves, but.

34:12.740 --> 34:16.280
Getting your people memorizing, memorizing this stuff.

34:16.640 --> 34:20.320
Yeah, there's probably a catch-22 there. It's probably hard to get people to work there.

34:20.420 --> 34:24.260
They don't pay any good money, so they don't expect competent people who can, oh, memorize.

34:24.800 --> 34:25.040
Yeah.

34:25.040 --> 34:26.680
So, hey, what are you going to do?

34:27.760 --> 34:31.520
Um, also, I don't know if you tried it or not, but is that the same password?

34:31.640 --> 34:33.740
Did you go try it on one of the other computers on display?

34:33.820 --> 34:34.820
Did they all use the same one?

34:35.100 --> 34:41.660
Yeah, this is, like, an internet accessible one to do, check on tech stuff, and just do a lot of more business type stuff.

34:41.800 --> 34:42.400
Ah, I see.

34:42.580 --> 34:46.380
So I didn't check it, but yeah, that's probably, I was going to write it down, but shucks, you know,

34:46.560 --> 34:48.620
Dool's going to hit and kick my ass, but no freak notebook.

34:49.440 --> 34:51.580
Oh, man. See?

34:52.060 --> 34:53.040
Don't hurt me, man.

34:53.040 --> 34:58.760
Oh, you have to have a freak notebook or a PDA. You know I'm the PDA guy. He's the freak notebook guy.

34:58.800 --> 35:00.320
Every time I buy a PDA, it breaks.

35:00.760 --> 35:02.440
Well, take care of it.

35:02.860 --> 35:03.320
I do.

35:03.440 --> 35:05.800
You broke your damn iMac.

35:06.140 --> 35:07.860
Hold on, man. It's not my fault.

35:08.040 --> 35:08.340
Wait.

35:08.340 --> 35:11.280
I've taken so much crap, paracord.

35:11.400 --> 35:13.380
We can't have nice things, because you tear them up.

35:13.380 --> 35:17.760
You're going to say to me in a message, P.S., stop jumping on top of your iBook.

35:18.000 --> 35:18.600
Mm-hmm.

35:18.800 --> 35:19.660
Stop breaking.

35:20.920 --> 35:22.920
I'm going to kick all your asses. I'm going to get some better.

35:23.320 --> 35:25.160
You'll see. Just wait. Just wait. I'll have pictures.

35:25.480 --> 35:26.180
Yeah, yeah.

35:26.180 --> 35:35.160
Yeah. Um, let's, let's actually try to squeeze in some news here. Um, the big thing this past

35:35.160 --> 35:39.100
week, we mentioned it on the last show, but, um, it's worth mentioning again, and that's

35:39.100 --> 35:40.140
the So Big virus.

35:40.700 --> 35:41.320
So Big.

35:41.460 --> 35:44.100
Did you have any, did you have any personal, any relations?

35:44.100 --> 35:49.000
But it happened, oh, I got like, oh, at least ten copies of it in my inbox. Hmm.

35:49.300 --> 35:52.020
You notice it after, like, you get three of the same heading.

35:52.260 --> 35:52.460
Right.

35:52.460 --> 35:54.300
With an attachment. It's like, yep, that's a virus.

35:54.700 --> 36:00.260
Yeah, there's like, I don't know, ten or twelve, ten or fifteen different headers or subject

36:00.260 --> 36:03.760
lines that they give you, but, yeah, you can, for the most part, tell, and they're.

36:03.800 --> 36:07.580
Someone actually got a little smart. They put Microsoft.com. Hmm.

36:07.640 --> 36:09.500
Like, update with this patch now.

36:10.160 --> 36:11.660
Yeah, but it was like a PIF file.

36:11.660 --> 36:14.020
Yeah, it was a PIF file. So, wait, come on.

36:14.100 --> 36:14.640
Stupid people.

36:14.820 --> 36:15.660
Well, I know.

36:15.820 --> 36:17.200
Microsoft, oh, it's safe, it's safe.

36:17.360 --> 36:23.880
Right. Even though it, they didn't notice the address came from ZQ41321 at Yahoo.com or

36:23.880 --> 36:24.280
something like that.

36:24.280 --> 36:25.700
It's stupid. It comes from Microsoft.com.

36:25.740 --> 36:29.120
Well, you know what? That's true. That is actually true. I should take that back because

36:29.120 --> 36:33.380
the way that, that's the nature of the virus is it does come from people in your address

36:33.380 --> 36:36.700
book or that you're in their address book, I should say. So, it is coming from people that

36:36.700 --> 36:42.220
you know or think you know. So, it's just that the email itself was not.

36:42.220 --> 36:45.540
But, like, if I went to headers, I would get a real address.

36:45.980 --> 36:48.560
But, it came from support at Microsoft.com.

36:48.760 --> 36:49.820
Right, right.

36:49.900 --> 36:51.380
It quote, unquote, came from.

36:51.640 --> 36:53.260
Well, yeah, it appeared from.

36:53.500 --> 36:53.740
Yeah.

36:53.740 --> 36:59.620
You know, the thing about this virus, though, that I found interesting was that where I

36:59.620 --> 37:07.240
work, we were actually hit pretty hard by this virus and not so much because of the

37:07.240 --> 37:12.140
vulnerability, the Microsoft vulnerability itself. That had been patched pretty quickly

37:12.140 --> 37:17.920
and a lot of the machines were repaired pretty quickly. But, the thing is, the ones that weren't

37:17.920 --> 37:25.320
were causing so much congestion on the network that it was really, really hurting the network

37:25.320 --> 37:30.760
a lot because they are shouting out, looking constantly all over the place for its next

37:30.760 --> 37:36.260
victim trying to spread. So, even machines that were on our network that were Linux-based,

37:36.480 --> 37:44.500
Mac-based, anything, Unix, they were getting constantly getting ping requests, getting requests for

37:44.500 --> 37:50.380
certain ports. So, that actually taxes your system to answer and say, no, that port's not

37:50.380 --> 37:54.520
here. No, that port's not open. No, I'm not Microsoft. No, that vulnerability's not going

37:54.520 --> 38:01.700
to work on me. So, technically, they didn't get affected by the virus, per se, but they were

38:01.700 --> 38:10.040
actually DOS'd, to a certain extent, by a virus that doesn't even affect them. So, I thought

38:10.040 --> 38:14.480
that was really interesting about this virus. I don't know if that was by intent or

38:14.480 --> 38:18.100
if that just kind of worked out by circumstance, but I thought that was really interesting

38:18.100 --> 38:25.580
that we have a computer science and engineering department that's very much Unix-based, and

38:25.580 --> 38:30.240
they were reporting lots and lots of problems, too, and there was little they could do about

38:30.240 --> 38:34.220
it other than trying to block certain ports, which, of course, starts crippling what they

38:34.220 --> 38:38.700
can and can't do with their systems, and, you know, it's not really an answer. It's a short-term

38:38.700 --> 38:43.020
answer, but even they were getting problems, even though they weren't vulnerable to the

38:43.020 --> 38:46.900
attack. Did they catch some, dude? Or was that a blaster?

38:46.900 --> 38:52.840
That was blaster.b. Yeah, you know, the other thing is the copycats. Yeah, the copycats

38:52.840 --> 38:58.040
out there. The first, you know, the first blaster virus, which we talked about a while back

38:58.040 --> 39:02.720
about, they missed it. They just made a tiny mistake in the original that they could have

39:02.720 --> 39:08.380
actually DOS'd Microsoft Update, and they screwed up and attacked the wrong address, the wrong

39:08.380 --> 39:15.860
box. So, the copycats come along, and they're not going to, you know, they come in, and this

39:15.860 --> 39:18.760
guy put his name in the virus. Now, I'm sorry, that's stupid.

39:19.200 --> 39:24.640
Yeah, he put his, uh, what did he, he had, he built in a, uh, in a backdoor function, and

39:24.640 --> 39:28.900
it pointed to his website that his, uh, his Whois records had his name.

39:28.900 --> 39:33.140
Exactly. I mean, he gave it, he gave himself away. You know, he put a link.

39:33.560 --> 39:37.500
My parents laughed at that. You, you have to detach yourself from these things if you're

39:37.500 --> 39:41.900
going to do that, which I do not condone in the first place. But if you're going to do

39:41.900 --> 39:48.180
that, for God's sake, detach yourself from stuff like that. Anyway, you know, let's see

39:48.180 --> 39:52.100
what comes of that, though. What kind of, um, punishment do you give somebody for something

39:52.100 --> 39:56.660
like that? Are they going to make another example out of him, and, you know, roast him

39:56.660 --> 40:01.500
in the media, and, you know, that's, that's a concern, right? You know, no matter what he

40:01.500 --> 40:05.520
did, right or wrong, you know, is the punishment going to fit the crime? Let's see what happens

40:05.520 --> 40:11.500
with it. But, you know, there is a lesson here to the listeners and to anybody. Don't get

40:11.500 --> 40:15.600
in over your head. Don't go messing with something. You know, guess what? I've had the source

40:15.600 --> 40:21.100
code to blaster virus since they first announced, since before the virus. I had the vulnerability

40:21.100 --> 40:25.460
code itself that I was reading through to see how it worked. I'm not going to put my

40:25.460 --> 40:29.180
name on it and re-release it. I'm not going to jump in there and get my feet. No way.

40:29.740 --> 40:34.940
No way. I read it to see how it worked. You know, I found it interesting. But come on,

40:35.000 --> 40:39.900
people. Don't go out there and stick your foot in there just because you find, oh, I

40:39.900 --> 40:44.700
got some dude hooked me up. This elite guy on IRC sent me the source code, and I modified

40:44.700 --> 40:49.000
it, and now I'm elite, you know. Well, guess what? Yeah, you're elite in jail while you're

40:49.000 --> 40:55.020
bent over tossing somebody's salad. How elite are you now? Oh, that's a good show. How elite

40:55.020 --> 41:03.000
are you now? I like that. It's been a shirt. Yeah. Like Rax is a, Rax, I think Duel told

41:03.000 --> 41:06.900
me that Rax has a shirt that says, I'm not a hacker, I'm a computer security analyst.

41:07.740 --> 41:13.220
Hmm. Nice, I want that. Yeah. Well, we ought to, well, never mind. We'll talk about that

41:13.220 --> 41:16.960
in a later show. We need to, we need to come up with some DDP shirts and slogans and stuff.

41:16.960 --> 41:20.820
I think we should have a, well, what am I going to say? I have way too many other things

41:20.820 --> 41:28.420
on my plate right now to think about that. Anyway, here's another topic that I wanted

41:28.420 --> 41:32.960
to talk about because this to me, all right, let me just read this, Mutant, and you tell

41:32.960 --> 41:36.780
me what you think of this. Okay. And this is from an old Computer World magazine. This

41:36.780 --> 41:43.940
may be a couple months old, but it says, quote, the number of organized hacking syndicates

41:43.940 --> 41:48.420
targeting financial institutions around the world is growing at a disturbingly fast

41:48.420 --> 41:54.140
rate. And so is the number of banks willing to pay these high-tech extortionist hush money

41:54.140 --> 41:59.820
to protect their reputations, according to a security expert at the World Bank. First

41:59.820 --> 42:03.120
of all, I don't know if there is a security expert at the World Bank. If it is, he's a putz.

42:03.800 --> 42:08.860
It goes on to say, cases in which banks, brokerage firms, and other financial institutions have

42:08.860 --> 42:15.040
quietly paid hacking syndicates extortion money are extremely widespread, said Tom Kellerman,

42:15.340 --> 42:18.340
senior data risk manager specialist in the World Bank in Washington.

42:19.160 --> 42:23.860
You think you don't pay off the banks? I do it every week. My PayPal's both money.

42:24.180 --> 42:26.680
Ugh, man, I guess I'm missing out on this.

42:26.780 --> 42:27.540
Missing out, man.

42:27.740 --> 42:28.400
I'm not elite.

42:28.820 --> 42:31.600
It's the dot-com era, man, of the banking extortionists.

42:31.960 --> 42:36.260
They claim that 80% of these things go unreported.

42:36.260 --> 42:44.140
Rule number one, you need proof. If I call up Apple and I say, I got a bomb, and I'm going

42:44.140 --> 42:50.040
to blow up your building, and I want $10 million, you just don't send them $10 million. You

42:50.040 --> 42:51.500
see if they have the proof.

42:52.900 --> 42:58.440
Well, and their excuse for that is, and here, it goes on. It says, moreover, he contends

42:58.440 --> 43:03.460
that IT employees keep many of these incidents from senior banking executives, quote, due to

43:03.460 --> 43:08.800
the reality that they may be fired. Banks don't report these incidents mainly because

43:08.800 --> 43:13.560
they want to maintain customer and investor trust, according to Kellerman. So they don't

43:13.560 --> 43:17.580
want to look bad. That's the bottom line. They don't want to look bad. They don't want

43:17.580 --> 43:21.360
to lose their job, the individuals. The companies don't want to look bad. So they're claiming

43:21.360 --> 43:26.440
that 80% go unreported. Well, guess what? I think that's utter and complete bullshit.

43:26.440 --> 43:33.480
I think that anybody is losing 80% of these things that are going unreported. They're losing

43:33.480 --> 43:37.840
that much money and having that many attacks, successful attacks, which is what they're

43:37.840 --> 43:43.600
insinuating, and they're not telling anyone, I don't buy it for a second. I don't buy it

43:43.600 --> 43:49.380
for a second. If somebody breaks into my box, I'm going after them. You know? I don't know

43:49.380 --> 43:54.320
if there's... Anyway, if I were a bank, that is to say. If somebody breaks into my box at

43:54.320 --> 44:00.640
the house, well, first of all, more power to you. I'd like to see it. But if you're

44:00.640 --> 44:04.900
in a banking institution and you get robbed of money, you better report it and you better

44:04.900 --> 44:09.960
go after somebody. And if you don't... I'm sorry, I think you're a fool. Am I wrong on this?

44:09.960 --> 44:18.140
No, because first of all, it's money. Money is... Sadly enough, it's worth a lot these days.

44:18.700 --> 44:23.140
It should be, you know, it should be like, you know, your skill today, but you know, the amount

44:23.140 --> 44:27.920
of money, it's who you are in the world. So, okay, you got to go find yourself and it's not

44:27.920 --> 44:34.360
they're taking it from you. You don't have it anymore. Go get it back. Or hide it so you

44:34.360 --> 44:38.640
don't lose your job. Exactly. Oh, come on. I don't believe that for a second. You know what?

44:38.640 --> 44:44.300
I think, I tend to believe how they beefed these numbers up or how they skewed these

44:44.300 --> 44:51.700
numbers is they're claiming and insinuating that this is from, what was their term? Extortionists

44:51.700 --> 44:56.000
hacking syndicates. What the hell is a hacking syndicate, first of all? Is it DDP? Are

44:56.000 --> 45:01.960
we a hacking syndicate? Totally, man. We are like... Ah, for crying. We're global. PR, like

45:01.960 --> 45:05.620
everywhere. We got like dudes in Russia sitting in the back of the room just hacking away

45:05.620 --> 45:13.300
the keyboard, man. I think they beefed these numbers up by every single tiny little incident

45:13.300 --> 45:19.300
if somebody pings their server. Some script kitty does a port scan on them. I think they

45:19.300 --> 45:24.720
used that to claim that was an incident where somebody, you know, they're disguising it.

45:24.760 --> 45:28.720
They didn't get any money. They didn't get it. But they're using that to exaggerate the

45:28.720 --> 45:32.960
news to scare, you know. And when someone types in the wrong password. Yeah. Three

45:32.960 --> 45:37.520
times, oh, alert the media. Exactly. No, no, don't alert the media. That's what they're

45:37.520 --> 45:41.720
going to say. Right. So they're trying to make it look like they're more in distress

45:41.720 --> 45:45.060
than they really are. I bet like no one's even tried breaking in because, first of all,

45:45.080 --> 45:50.600
there's that thing of that error of we break in, they're going to find us. It's that Cold

45:50.600 --> 45:54.580
War thing. Like, we have bombs. Russia has bombs. We're not going to bomb each other because

45:54.580 --> 45:59.260
we both know. What's going to happen? No one's going to go either way.

46:00.960 --> 46:08.400
Yeah. The other, you know, and anybody, well, let me be careful saying this. I don't know

46:08.400 --> 46:15.260
that in the United States anybody would be dumb enough to attack a bank inside the United States.

46:15.260 --> 46:22.160
You know, if this were true, this is country to country hacking. So you're not tied up. If

46:22.160 --> 46:27.720
you do this within the United States, you're going to get caught. You really are. Mitnick

46:27.720 --> 46:31.880
got caught. Everybody, you're going to get caught. They will find you. They don't play when it

46:31.880 --> 46:37.700
comes to money. So I don't believe for a second that 80% have gone unreported. If you hack into

46:37.700 --> 46:42.640
a bank and steal money, they are going to find you. The only way they wouldn't is if you're

46:42.640 --> 46:48.280
in another country where they can't reach and use their repressive laws to get to you

46:48.280 --> 46:53.440
and B, if you're good on top of that and cover your tracks very well, they might not be able

46:53.440 --> 47:05.320
to tell what country you're coming from, etc., etc. So that's travel hacking. You take

47:05.320 --> 47:12.540
a trip to Russia. You plan it all out. You footprint the system. You read my new article on targeting

47:12.540 --> 47:16.820
theory and the new issue have been revolution, binary revolution. Don't use credit card.

47:16.920 --> 47:20.940
Don't use PayPal with credit card. You just get over there. Now, you know, I don't want

47:20.940 --> 47:24.720
to sound like I'm telling people how to hack into a bank here. I'm just saying if you're

47:24.720 --> 47:28.920
going to do this smart, you know, think this all the way through. That's all. I'll just

47:28.920 --> 47:34.140
leave it at that. I'll just leave it at that. Don't hack from home. That means don't hack

47:34.140 --> 47:38.020
from inside your home. Don't hack from inside your state. Don't hack from inside your own

47:38.020 --> 47:45.480
country. You know, you take that, read into that what you will. Anyway, why don't we move

47:45.480 --> 47:49.580
on to something you were telling me about. We talked about this before on RFA, but the

47:49.580 --> 47:50.620
power lines thing.

47:52.000 --> 47:52.360
BPL.

47:52.360 --> 48:02.120
BPL is broadband or power lines, oddly enough. Basically what it's doing is, well, you have

48:02.120 --> 48:07.080
your power thing. It's going everywhere. Power's everywhere. We usually just hit a blackout

48:07.080 --> 48:12.540
about power. Well, what it's going to do is, how power works is a sine wave that goes back

48:12.540 --> 48:16.640
and forth. Alternating current goes back and forth, back and forth. It's 60 hertz a second.

48:16.640 --> 48:22.040
So, what that means is 60 hertz a second. So, that's how you have this nice little light

48:22.040 --> 48:26.120
bulb next to me, powering and letting me read my show notes. What they're going to do is,

48:26.160 --> 48:33.540
they're going to add another radio wave down there to carry your broadband. What that's

48:33.540 --> 48:39.220
going to do is, it runs at the same frequencies that run at the amateur high frequency or HF

48:39.220 --> 48:43.560
bands. So, what that does is, and they have a test, they have a movie of this on the

48:43.560 --> 48:53.620
A-double-R-L.org has a video of them scanning the HF bands, and all they hear is static during

48:53.620 --> 48:57.900
these power lines. There's a couple tests, maybe just one or two test cities that hit

48:57.900 --> 49:01.120
broadband over power lines, and the people love it because, you know, they get broadband,

49:01.440 --> 49:03.800
but it absolutely killed ham radio.

49:04.860 --> 49:05.440
How so?

49:05.440 --> 49:11.420
Because what happens, if you go over to How Stuff Works, go over to those sites and look

49:11.420 --> 49:16.500
up how ham radio works, at the higher frequencies, it doesn't travel as far, but the lower frequencies

49:16.500 --> 49:23.560
you go around the world. Now, at these lower frequencies, power lines are everywhere, so

49:23.560 --> 49:29.300
you can't turn your radio on and not hear all this static and stuff coming over these power

49:29.300 --> 49:35.420
lines, all this high frequency static coming over and ruining your reception. Now, it's

49:35.420 --> 49:39.540
what this does is there's no more amateur radio, because that's really what amateur radio

49:39.540 --> 49:44.980
is today, this cross-country communications. That means there's no more emergency radio.

49:45.380 --> 49:50.940
You basically kill an emergency resource with this. This is horrible.

49:51.480 --> 49:56.140
Well, it wouldn't get approved if they were destroying emergency radio. You're talking about

49:56.140 --> 49:59.000
the emergency fire, the emergency weather, stuff like that.

49:59.000 --> 50:05.440
But amateur radio is not just happy fun time with old guys. It was built as a public service.

50:06.440 --> 50:11.660
One of the major tenets of amateur radio is this ability to work and coordinate with any

50:11.660 --> 50:14.320
local fire to police department, whatever they want to do.

50:14.480 --> 50:19.340
Right, and surely they can't, when rolling out this broadband power line technology, surely

50:19.340 --> 50:24.700
they can't interfere with critical infrastructure like that.

50:25.540 --> 50:31.000
They might be. That's the problem. They don't understand what the sweeping effects it has.

50:32.160 --> 50:36.240
Well, hopefully in their testing and rolling this out in test markets, they'll realize and

50:36.240 --> 50:37.720
come across that and adapt to it.

50:37.720 --> 50:43.860
It runs between like 5 and 50 megahertz exact, whatever range. It destroys ham radio. That's

50:43.860 --> 50:49.880
a major thing. If you think about it, in the blackout, there's no power except for ham radio

50:49.880 --> 50:54.800
operators that had batteries. They were relaying messages. People were relaying between like

50:54.800 --> 51:01.360
1,000 and 3,000 messages that are weak for people because there's nothing else because no one

51:01.360 --> 51:05.000
else had power. Everyone else is like plugging in the wall and work. Well, it didn't work for

51:05.000 --> 51:11.120
three days, whatever, five days. You destroy a major resource when that happens.

51:11.120 --> 51:15.580
Well, it'll be interesting to see how this evolves.

51:16.020 --> 51:21.540
Yeah, and it's going to be, if it happens, there's going to be so much protest about this.

51:21.680 --> 51:26.220
Oh, I'm sure. I'm sure. You know, it's not just from, like you said, a bunch of old guys.

51:26.440 --> 51:35.060
It's going to be, that's a critical infrastructure. It may not be, people don't realize that radio

51:35.060 --> 51:41.100
is so important to weather, to emergency situations. That is what they use for communications.

51:41.840 --> 51:47.120
It's not used in little or no other circumstances, so people don't know and appreciate it as much.

51:47.120 --> 51:53.320
But that is a critical, critical part of our infrastructure. And I don't see how they could

51:53.320 --> 52:02.240
approve, the FCC could possibly approve this, knowing, I don't know. Unless there's some

52:02.240 --> 52:06.380
way they can work it out where it doesn't interfere, obviously, but I don't know enough

52:06.380 --> 52:07.840
about the technology to know that.

52:08.080 --> 52:09.160
Powerline's like a big antenna.

52:09.720 --> 52:10.580
Right, exactly.

52:10.940 --> 52:15.460
Flying at whatever amount of power, it's just going to destroy stuff. And you see this,

52:15.540 --> 52:18.440
if you watch this movie, watch this movie, it's really low quality, but you can still see

52:18.440 --> 52:22.260
what's going on. And they have a radio set up, and they're going around the dial. And

52:22.260 --> 52:23.080
all you hear is...

52:23.080 --> 52:26.280
And what was that? A-R-R-P dot org?

52:26.600 --> 52:31.980
A-R-R-L dot org. Amateur Radio, Amateur Relay Radio League.

52:32.780 --> 52:33.260
Dot org.

52:33.380 --> 52:36.860
Radio Relay League, whatever. A-R-R-L dot org.

52:37.120 --> 52:39.640
Okay, I'll check that out myself after the show. I'm curious.

52:39.840 --> 52:45.420
You're at the top of the page, and there's a BPL testing movie or whatever. And watch that,

52:45.420 --> 52:49.920
and you see the problems it's going to cause. They set up some town with a broadband over

52:49.920 --> 52:55.920
power lines and all. It's... If they pass it, it's going to be...

52:55.920 --> 52:57.000
A mess?

52:57.520 --> 52:58.400
It's going to be a mess.

52:58.620 --> 52:59.480
It's going to be a mess?

52:59.720 --> 53:00.340
Yeah, a mess.

53:01.280 --> 53:03.240
It really is. There's no other way to put it.

53:03.460 --> 53:03.680
No.

53:03.900 --> 53:05.120
It's going to be a mess?

53:05.460 --> 53:07.240
So stick with your cable internet and be happy.

53:07.660 --> 53:09.160
What kind of bandwidth does that have, though?

53:09.420 --> 53:11.120
I have no idea. I don't know.

53:11.120 --> 53:16.860
If I can get, like, you know, five megabits per second, then fuck all you hams.

53:16.960 --> 53:20.080
You can figure something else out. I'm taking my bandwidth, man.

53:20.100 --> 53:22.000
That's more porn than any one man can handle.

53:24.380 --> 53:25.740
That was a little joke there, by the way.

53:25.840 --> 53:26.140
Don't send...

53:26.140 --> 53:26.500
Oh, don't tell...

53:26.500 --> 53:29.600
All the hammers out there, don't send me hate mail. That was just a little humor there.

53:29.800 --> 53:31.360
Don't tell Parallel about that.

53:31.520 --> 53:31.760
Yeah.

53:32.540 --> 53:36.460
Oh, he's already got terabytes of porn anyway. He doesn't need to download anymore.

53:36.900 --> 53:37.220
Jesus.

53:37.220 --> 53:40.380
Um, let's see.

53:41.000 --> 53:44.840
Did you want... There's also... We had a topic... We got a little bit of time.

53:44.900 --> 53:46.720
You want to touch on this Nintendo thing real quick?

53:47.040 --> 53:48.580
It's old, man, but yeah, yes.

53:49.980 --> 53:51.440
Um, Nintendo...

53:51.440 --> 53:53.040
Let me just talk to the people for a second.

53:53.200 --> 53:54.080
Okay, talk to the people.

53:54.200 --> 53:58.260
What happens is we talk about so much stuff, we have to roll news over.

53:59.140 --> 54:00.540
And this is, like, two months old.

54:00.780 --> 54:01.580
No, it's not.

54:02.060 --> 54:02.820
It's old, man.

54:04.940 --> 54:06.700
Um, let's see.

54:07.600 --> 54:08.720
And Kennedy is shot.

54:08.820 --> 54:09.380
Yeah, it's old.

54:09.580 --> 54:10.300
This is pretty old.

54:10.380 --> 54:11.360
All right, you want... We'll skip this.

54:11.380 --> 54:14.660
We'll skip this, because we are actually just about out of time, so...

54:14.660 --> 54:15.480
Whoa, he's finished the show.

54:15.700 --> 54:16.760
The show notes are done.

54:17.240 --> 54:18.400
The show notes are done.

54:18.480 --> 54:20.880
We actually did not have to use all the extra material.

54:21.560 --> 54:22.520
And I'm tearing them up.

54:23.140 --> 54:23.620
All right.

54:23.640 --> 54:24.800
Because we have nothing else to do.

54:25.280 --> 54:27.820
No, um, all we have to do is shout-outs.

54:27.820 --> 54:29.100
You got any special shout-outs tonight?

54:29.260 --> 54:29.720
Nothing, man.

54:29.760 --> 54:30.120
I'm old.

54:30.380 --> 54:31.180
Hey, I got one kid.

54:31.600 --> 54:35.840
This guy next to me lived next to me for, like, my whole little, uh, childhood.

54:36.360 --> 54:37.840
And then he becomes this lead hacker, man.

54:37.940 --> 54:38.960
I'll talk to him.

54:39.300 --> 54:40.400
I don't want to say his name.

54:40.480 --> 54:41.800
You know, I don't want to get him all pissed off.

54:41.880 --> 54:43.180
But I'm going to talk to him pretty soon.

54:43.280 --> 54:44.320
He was...

54:44.320 --> 54:49.900
I only realize now his leatness from when I was a little, little tyke in first grade.

54:50.300 --> 54:52.200
But, pfft, God damn.

54:53.720 --> 54:59.620
And, um, uh, oh, since I mentioned that, uh, BinRev 1.2 is out, I definitely got to give

54:59.620 --> 55:00.860
a shout-out to Logan 5.

55:01.240 --> 55:03.820
An amazing, amazing job once again.

55:04.220 --> 55:05.200
Don't even, don't even...

55:05.200 --> 55:05.680
You won't even...

55:05.680 --> 55:08.200
You think it's like, oh, oh, it's just a cool magazine?

55:08.340 --> 55:08.560
No.

55:09.300 --> 55:10.300
It'll blow your mind.

55:10.400 --> 55:12.360
It, it, it just...

55:12.360 --> 55:14.300
Yeah, I just can't even put it into words.

55:14.540 --> 55:16.000
It just...

55:16.000 --> 55:16.820
It, not...

55:16.820 --> 55:18.920
You know, I think the content is good myself.

55:19.680 --> 55:24.040
But then, in addition to that, I mean, it's, it's beautiful.

55:24.480 --> 55:28.860
I don't know if that's corny to say that, but, you know, the layout that he does to the

55:28.860 --> 55:34.100
interior of the magazine accentuates the articles, adds to the articles, and then the cover

55:34.100 --> 55:40.300
this month, you know, the inside cover, the back cover, the front cover, the last issue.

55:40.760 --> 55:42.140
It's, it's amazing.

55:42.460 --> 55:46.800
This, if you haven't looked already, again, go to magazine.binrev.com, check out the new

55:46.800 --> 55:47.060
cover.

55:47.180 --> 55:48.040
I think it's awesome.

55:49.120 --> 55:50.380
Go ahead and put your order in.

55:50.460 --> 55:54.600
By the time this airs, I should have them printed and on their way.

55:54.600 --> 55:57.520
So, um, again, shout outs to him.

55:57.980 --> 56:01.100
Um, I'm actually going to try to have him on next week, Mute, because I, I guess, Mute,

56:01.160 --> 56:04.120
why don't you, are you going to announce to the people, or are you going to be taking

56:04.120 --> 56:07.580
some time off here since school's starting back up, or how do you want to, what do you

56:07.580 --> 56:08.060
want to do here?

56:08.060 --> 56:12.400
As some of you may or may not know, uh, and maybe you know by my voice, I'm, I'm, I'm,

56:12.400 --> 56:13.720
I'm a youngin'.

56:13.720 --> 56:14.720
Well, you're not that young.

56:14.960 --> 56:19.420
I'm not that, okay, fine, I'm not that young, but in the grand scheme of people.

56:19.800 --> 56:21.540
Compared to me, you're young, but yeah, go ahead.

56:21.540 --> 56:27.760
When a kid says to someone, 30 years old, I've heard that, well then, yeah, I'm young.

56:28.340 --> 56:32.880
Okay, so, you know, and I'm going into senior year of high school, and I kind of screwed

56:32.880 --> 56:38.700
up, because hacking, uh, kind of overwhelmed me last year, and grades were up there, but

56:38.700 --> 56:43.780
not, not wonderful, so this, uh, this year's got to be the best year I've ever had.

56:44.300 --> 56:45.480
Well, it damn well better be.

56:45.960 --> 56:46.620
It has to be.

56:46.720 --> 56:48.380
Or I'm going to come up there and kick your ass.

56:48.380 --> 56:51.720
I'm going to be flipping hot, I'm going to be flipping hamburgers at McD wireless or

56:51.720 --> 56:51.880
something.

56:52.100 --> 56:52.360
Yeah.

56:52.780 --> 56:57.440
So, uh, you're not going to get much hacking on that, so, yeah, I might take a, a sabbatical,

56:57.560 --> 57:02.780
a hiatus, however you want to say it, and, you know, it's going to be the mute season finale.

57:03.620 --> 57:07.460
Well, we'll probably have you back on on occasion when you get, when you get a break or vacation.

57:07.820 --> 57:12.740
I might not be hitting the boards enough, but I mean, we'll definitely be, uh, pounding

57:12.740 --> 57:17.020
those graves after I get, you know, accepted to prestigious colleges across the world.

57:17.020 --> 57:19.520
And let me just tell everyone right now, I'm not applying to MIT.

57:20.400 --> 57:22.100
Now, my people say, mute, you can get in.

57:22.200 --> 57:27.940
Well, no, because I've heard horror stories from MIT, and I just don't want to.

57:27.980 --> 57:29.660
It was a crapshoot to apply there.

57:30.500 --> 57:32.920
I wish I could have gone to MIT myself, but.

57:33.820 --> 57:35.640
I've just heard horror, I've just heard bad things.

57:36.220 --> 57:38.240
Well, don't listen to what you heard.

57:38.340 --> 57:39.280
Make your own decision.

57:39.420 --> 57:40.080
Go check it out.

57:40.600 --> 57:41.360
I might go there and.

57:41.580 --> 57:42.620
Put it on the world tour.

57:42.620 --> 57:47.460
See what's flying over there, but, you know, I got some, I got four colleges lined up.

57:47.560 --> 57:48.960
They're all pretty, pretty neat stuff.

57:49.480 --> 57:53.600
So, when I get accepted and when I can kind of chill, I'll be definitely getting back to

57:53.600 --> 57:56.060
those, but, uh, don't worry.

57:56.180 --> 57:56.920
Mute will not die.

57:57.880 --> 57:59.100
Oh, no, I'm sure not.

57:59.560 --> 58:00.260
Boy, never die.

58:00.740 --> 58:05.340
We, you know, and this, there's a, you know, this, like I said earlier, too, I'm, I'm taking

58:05.340 --> 58:06.740
a class, and I am old.

58:07.460 --> 58:08.560
There's no doubt about it.

58:08.560 --> 58:10.460
I am old, and I'm going back to take a class.

58:10.460 --> 58:12.240
And it doesn't count for anything.

58:12.380 --> 58:16.140
For me, I'm doing it because of the, you know, the love of knowledge and the learning and

58:16.140 --> 58:16.820
stuff like that.

58:17.220 --> 58:23.480
Mute knows what's important, and he's emphasizing his education because he knows that that is

58:23.480 --> 58:26.440
the foundation to what he can and will do in the future.

58:26.700 --> 58:30.100
So, you know, put things into perspective sometimes.

58:30.280 --> 58:33.360
Does it suck to get up at five or six in the morning sometimes to go to school?

58:33.680 --> 58:35.740
Yeah, of course it does.

58:36.100 --> 58:36.840
But guess what?

58:36.840 --> 58:41.740
Your alternative is to not go to school, be in, you know, get on, hit the boards for

58:41.740 --> 58:45.940
a few years, think you're an elite hacker, and then, you know, you have no money, no

58:45.940 --> 58:49.960
job, no way to make a living, and you're not going to be hacking four or five years from

58:49.960 --> 58:54.260
now because you're going to be struggling, flipping burgers, and, you know, making hash browns,

58:54.280 --> 58:56.460
smattered, smothered, covered, chunked, whatever.

58:56.940 --> 59:00.360
That's the thing, because I've always heard, like, I always tell myself, I don't have to

59:00.360 --> 59:00.580
worry.

59:00.880 --> 59:02.220
No one knows what they're talking about.

59:02.560 --> 59:04.240
It's like, oh, there's all information out of date.

59:04.240 --> 59:05.640
No one understands me.

59:06.320 --> 59:10.120
Well, let me tell you, I do understand, and you're going to fuck your life up.

59:10.600 --> 59:10.680
Yeah.

59:11.120 --> 59:11.680
The work.

59:12.160 --> 59:16.300
So I hear the young, it's these young kids that, they are super smart.

59:16.440 --> 59:18.600
Let me, Freak Lay is young brain.

59:18.720 --> 59:20.020
I know you love, oh, Swigger.

59:20.320 --> 59:21.500
Swigger's got to get the shout out.

59:21.580 --> 59:23.400
He says, tickles his penis when he mentioned that.

59:23.780 --> 59:25.640
I'm in red, but we'll talk about that later.

59:26.020 --> 59:27.000
He needs to talk to Parallel.

59:27.000 --> 59:37.720
So, anyways, these kids have to learn and to grow now, because in a few short years,

59:37.780 --> 59:38.580
you're going to go to college.

59:39.100 --> 59:43.460
And if your stuff isn't on the top of the notch, because every year that goes by in college,

59:43.720 --> 59:48.520
every year that goes by up to the day you apply to college, is the hardest year to get

59:48.520 --> 59:49.180
into college.

59:49.180 --> 59:53.460
It means everyone wants a good education, to get a good job.

59:54.600 --> 59:55.740
You work your ass off.

59:56.180 --> 59:58.300
You stop, you have to stop the hacking.

59:59.060 --> 01:00:00.580
I don't know if that's bad, but you have to.

01:00:00.880 --> 01:00:01.240
Pause.

01:00:02.000 --> 01:00:03.100
You pause, yeah, pause it.

01:00:03.200 --> 01:00:03.960
Hit the start button.

01:00:04.620 --> 01:00:05.060
Pause it.

01:00:05.140 --> 01:00:05.660
Walk away.

01:00:06.060 --> 01:00:07.100
Walk away for a year or two.

01:00:07.400 --> 01:00:08.960
Get your shit straight, and come back.

01:00:09.100 --> 01:00:10.220
We'll be here when you get back.

01:00:10.420 --> 01:00:10.620
Yeah.

01:00:11.340 --> 01:00:12.640
All right, let's get off the soapbox.

01:00:12.640 --> 01:00:19.380
I've got to give a shout-out also, again, to Rocket from Interzone, to Acidus and Virgil.

01:00:20.840 --> 01:00:23.600
Good luck with, you know, do what you've got to do.

01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:28.140
You know, I know the situation, so I've got to give shout-outs to them for what they went

01:00:28.140 --> 01:00:28.440
through.

01:00:28.820 --> 01:00:32.580
And if you have email, send it to us, letters at binrev.com.

01:00:33.020 --> 01:00:34.560
And that is it.

01:00:34.560 --> 01:00:43.700
Our closing music this week is from Rocket Productions, and it's called Hypnotic.

01:00:44.660 --> 01:00:45.300
That's it.

01:00:45.360 --> 01:00:51.200
So I guess we won't see you next week, same hack time, same hack channel, but we will see

01:00:51.200 --> 01:00:53.040
the listeners next week, same hack time.

01:00:53.040 --> 01:00:54.560
Make the parting music.

01:00:55.200 --> 01:00:57.820
Boop, boop, boop, boop.

01:00:59.900 --> 01:01:01.200
Okay, whatever.

01:01:01.480 --> 01:01:02.100
No, it's 24.

01:01:02.660 --> 01:01:03.420
Best show ever.

01:01:03.420 --> 01:01:03.900
Goodbye.

01:01:03.900 --> 01:01:05.280
Oh, okay.

01:01:05.400 --> 01:01:06.540
Well, I have to take your word for it.

01:01:06.580 --> 01:01:07.100
I don't watch that.

01:01:07.880 --> 01:01:11.460
Anyway, we will see everyone else, though, next week, same hack time.

01:01:12.100 --> 01:01:13.000
Same hack channel.

01:01:13.600 --> 01:01:14.000
Later.

01:01:14.000 --> 01:01:14.820
Later.

01:01:14.820 --> 01:01:16.520
Later.

01:01:16.520 --> 01:01:16.780
Later.

01:01:25.460 --> 01:01:25.620

Sure.

Later.

01:01:27.640 --> 01:01:27.980
Later.

01:01:27.980 --> 01:01:28.520
Later.

01:01:28.520 --> 01:01:28.740
Later.

01:01:28.740 --> 01:01:29.080
Later.

01:01:29.080 --> 01:01:29.140
Later.

01:01:29.140 --> 01:01:29.800
Life.

01:01:29.800 --> 01:01:30.420
Later.

01:01:30.420 --> 01:01:30.760
Later.

01:01:30.760 --> 01:01:31.580
Later.

01:01:31.580 --> 01:01:31.660
Later.

01:01:31.660 --> 01:01:32.260
Later.

01:01:32.260 --> 01:01:32.800
Later.

01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:32.860
�

01:01:44.000 --> 01:02:13.980
Thank you.

Thank you.
