K1u Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Holly shit this is fucking retarded. No wonder I've been getting bored with most of the hacker community, it's full of retards.98% of that shit does not make you a hacker, some of it just makes you a stupid cunt or a common thieves. I have no issues with people breaking the law, which if you do some of things on the list you will be, but if you are going to break the law at least do something cool. This is for funs sake, to have fun dood, chill out, what do you think we are going to do? I understand what you are saying but 98% of people here would not know shit to do if we placed advanced challenges here. Hak5 is not the place for these advanced things as sad as it is to say, if you want the advanced stuff go join 0x000000.org's community or something underground. I really do not mean to offend but its not like we will be discussing Kernel programming with guys who want to know how to "hax0r" there school and own someones box using someone elses "switchblade" or "hacksaw". Don't you mean http://www.0x000000.com/ Oops, lol, kk edited it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babs Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I think its a great idea, but I am not sure to the legality of even building a cell phone jammer, i thought just possession of one is illegal. . . I remember an article from some magazine saying it was illegal to advertise, own or operate one, and wikipedia didn't help me there, so if someone can find the truth of that one (just because in bold letters you have "don't do anything illegal") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tabath Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Sees like it could be fun .....might enable me to lose my noobness No really I can code somewhat and other things but never really done half of the stuff on the list. Still looks like it could be expensive if you don' have some of that kit to start with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fair bit of money for something u are not likely to use a lot. I really should do my research properly - sorry! you can buy scanners realy cheap off ebay (UK) for £13 - don't know if they're suitable for the task though as I have no experience .

Spend As Little Money as Possible Why not build a radio scanner for a fraction of the retail cost? If its not suitable for the task, perhaps hack it and add functionality, part of the challenge is to, make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons.
