1 - FRANKLY, CURT from your Editor Node ID ->MORE
|
|
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
|
|
|
|
I have asked for and received the SC's permission to devote space to
|
|
an issue which I consider to be important to each of us wandering around
|
|
out here in cyberspace. We are warping around in an electronic frontier:
|
|
one whose regulations are not yet firm; and one in which guidelines are
|
|
often difficult to obtain. What we do with modems and messaging and file
|
|
transfers and our own sense of the ethical are often acts for which there
|
|
is no legal precedent. Are we publishers or retailers? Are we subject to
|
|
the same freedom of speech and behavior in this medium as in others?
|
|
|
|
The CUD407.??? issue of Computer Underground Digest provides details
|
|
of this nasty matter (the defense opening statement is included in its
|
|
entirety and makes for FINE reading). We should stop for one moment and
|
|
consider:
|
|
|
|
Craig Neidorf was indicted by the Federal Government for activities
|
|
which it determined, after considerable legal expense on Craig's part, were
|
|
unprosecutable. At the time, Craig was 19 years old and had done nothing
|
|
more serious than publish electronically an administrative document
|
|
concerning Emergency 911 services. The case went to trial before being
|
|
dropped by the prosecuting attorney. Craig ended up with over $100,000 in
|
|
legal expenses. The Electronic Frontier Foundation paid SOME and provided
|
|
SOME legal support, but he was left with significant debt as a reward for
|
|
standing up for principal. It involves BBSs, electronic newsletters, and
|
|
guilt by association.
|
|
|
|
A request: read CUD407.???. Ponder whether you can afford $5.29 (or
|
|
more) to help Craig and express appreciation for someone who stood on
|
|
principle and perhaps may have reminded the government that it should be a
|
|
bit less aggressive in its zeal to "get" folks who do "dastardly" things
|
|
with computers.
|
|
|
|
"Craig's situation is not simply his own personal
|
|
problem. He took considerable risks, for which he
|
|
incurred massive debt, to defend the principles in
|
|
which many of us believe. We are all indebted to him
|
|
for his courage, for his concern for justice instead of
|
|
expediency, and for the way in which he helped focus
|
|
the Constitutional and other issues of cyberspace.
|
|
|
|
"Craig needs our help in defraying the costs of a
|
|
battle from which we all benefited. Even $5 would help.
|
|
Just a 29 cent stamp and a $5 check. That strikes us as
|
|
a very small gesture on our part to demonstrate
|
|
recognition of his sacrifice. And the 3 minutes it
|
|
would take to address the check and send it to his
|
|
attorney:
|
|
|
|
Katten, Muchin, & Zavis
|
|
525 West Monroe Street
|
|
Suite 1600
|
|
Chicago, IL 60606-3693
|
|
|
|
"And do not forget to write Craig's name in the memo
|
|
section or enclose a letter explaining what the check
|
|
is for. If you neglect to do that, KMZ will not credit
|
|
his account for the amount of the check."

3 - AUTOMATED PHONE OPERATORS from Internet RISKS in COMPUTING

Subject: Risks of Automated Phone Operators (RE: RISKS-13.24)
|
|
|
|
Our moderator's comments about the potential fraud problems with AT&T's
|
|
operatorless collect-call system reminded me of my one experience with it.
|
|
I had to call AAA, for the obvious reason that the car I was traveling in
|
|
had decided to fry its clutch, and they tell you to call collect. The
|
|
conversation ran as follows:
|
|
|
|
Me: [Dial 0 + number]
|
|
Pleasant recorded voice: "...If you are making a collect call, please
|
|
press `1-1' now." [or some such]
|
|
Me: [Key 1-1]
|
|
Voice: "Please say your name."
|
|
Me: "Charles Olson"
|
|
Voice: "Please wait while we determine if your call will be accepted..."
|
|
[brrrring...brrrring.....]
|
|
[click]
|
|
AAA recording: "Thank you for | AT&T recording: "You have a collect
|
|

|
|
Service. We will accept your | If you accept this call, please...
|
|
collect call. If you...
|
|
|
|
Me: "AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!" [SLAM!]

4 - BREAK IN!! by Carol Carmichael Node ID ->STRUPPI
|
|
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
|
|
|
|
I knew it was bound to happen:
|
|
|
|
Sooner or later someone would try to log on as the SysOp. Yet, even
|
|
when I saw the proof glowing on the screen in front of me in my callers
|
|
log, I went into shock! After the feeling of shock started to fade away, I
|
|
began to feel intense rage. I quite literally saw red. I saw an attempt
|
|
at my privacy being invaded. And as most of you know - it's not a very
|
|
good idea to enrage a SysOp.
|
|
|
|
Fortunately when this took place, my trusty Co-SysOp was on-line. I
|
|
immediately broke into chat with him, so I could vent my anger. As we were
|
|
chatting, I also noticed a fellow D.C. area SysOp visiting on the second
|
|
node. The three of us entered a group chat to discuss what had happened
|
|
and how we would seek our ultimate revenge on the low-life who had violated
|
|
my BBS.
|
|
|
|
I was *so* mad that I could not see reason. I knew someone had
|
|
recently tried to hack into my system as me ... I felt violated. The guys
|
|
tried to calm me down, but all I wanted to do was find out who the
|
|
slimeball was, confront him/her/it, and then blacklist them from the local
|
|
BBS scene.
|
|
|
|
The three of us started running every analysis program we could find,
|
|
in an attempt to determine who the culprit might have been. Fortunately,
|
|
aided by modern technology, I was able to compare the callers log on the
|
|
BBS to the caller-id log. We were also running password and telephone
|
|
number analysis programs to see if any callers were using the passwords
|
|
this culprit had tried.
|
|
|
|
We were a bit puzzled; there appeared to be a two-minute delay between
|
|
the caller-id log and the callers log at the time the culprit attempted to
|
|
break in. Realizing the state I was in, my Co-SysOp called the individual
|
|
who was on-line right before the attempted break-in. He did this very
|
|
matter-of-factly, thanking the caller for calling our BBS and verifying we
|
|
had correct data in his user record. All checked out fine and we had a
|
|
clear mind that that particular caller did not attempt to break in.
|
|
|
|
By this time, about 50 minutes had passed. I was finally speaking a
|
|
little more coherently, but was still very steamed. While the other SysOp
|
|
and I traded comments back and forth in group chat, my Co-SysOp decided to
|
|
once more review the callers log entry that documented this attempted
|
|
break-in. For the life of me, I couldn't figure out why - but if it made
|
|
him happy, then so be it.
|
|
|
|
Well, he came back on line and advised us that he had good news,
|
|
interesting news, and depending how I looked at it, bad news. The good
|
|
news was that he was able to narrow down significantly who the intruder
|
|
was. The bad news was this individual was pretty close to me. The
|
|
interesting news was that after closely and carefully looking at all the
|
|
pieces in the callers log, my trusty Co-SysOp discovered one pertinent fact
|
|
we had all overlooked: the intruder was a LOCAL log on -- there was no
|
|
modem connect data!!! This certainly put a new perspective on things
|
|
indeed...
|
|
|
|
Before I went rushing off to perform unspeakable acts on the person of
|
|
the sole teenaged resident of my house, my two wise and trusting friends
|
|
calmed me down enough to get all the facts before grounding the culprit,
|
|
erasing all his Chuck Yeager diskettes, and yanking his modem privileges
|
|
for life. My Co-SysOp entreated me to remember that the lad was only a
|
|
boy, and no matter how responsible he had been in the past, he was still
|
|
only a teenager - prone to do an occasional immature thing or two. I
|
|
promised them I would be cool, calm, and collected... then I'd ground him,
|
|
erase all his Chuck Yeager diskettes, and yank his modem privileges for
|
|
life.
|
|
|
|
Confronting the culprit was a lot easier than I anticipated. I was
|
|
preparing myself for some mad scheme of why he tried to log on as his
|
|
MOTHER! He sort of took the wind out of my sails when I confronted him. He
|
|
matter-of-factly advised me, since I harped on computer security so much,
|
|
he wanted to see how I'd react when I noticed the attempted break-in and
|
|
how long it would take me to figure out it was him! <harumphf>
|
|
|
|
As I'm sure you've imagined by now, my teenaged son had a harsh
|
|
realities briefing on computer security and how it's not nice to cross his
|
|
MOTHER but his SYSOP as well!

5 - REACHING OUT by Matt Roberts Node ID ->EDSHOME
|
|
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
|
|
|
|
When I first got my Apple computer in 1985, I never realized how
|
|
powerful computers were. I mostly used the Apple for my high school
|
|
papers, and I played around with basic programming. I chose the Apple
|
|
computer because I am totally blind, and speech-access products were
|
|
available. After I finished high school, I immediately added a second
|
|
Apple computer to use at school. Two years went by, and I never thought I
|
|
would want or need any more computer equipment.
|
|
|
|
In September of 1990, my parents bought me a Braille 'n Speak. The
|
|
Braille 'n Speak is a portable computer about the size of a book. It uses
|
|
braille as its input method, using a six key keyboard. A person reads
|
|
material stored in the Braille 'n Speak through its built-in voice
|
|
synthesizer. When I received my Braille 'n Speak, I started playing with
|
|
it. While reading the Blazie Engineering Newsletter, the president, Dean
|
|
Blazie, mentioned that the company was going to set up a bulletin board for
|
|
Braille 'n Speak users to get technical support. I knew that I needed a
|
|
modem, so I convinced my mother to buy a 2400-baud pocket modem. In the
|
|
meantime, I had met Bob Shuck, the SysOp of Capitol Connection BBS. The
|
|
night I received my modem, I called Bob and asked for access to his
|
|
bulletin board. Since I didn't have a communications program yet, I
|
|
planned to use the Braille 'n Speak. The program arrived two days later
|
|
and it was a good thing. The Braille 'n Speak was very difficult to use on
|
|
bulletin boards, because it was difficult to read the current prompt.
|
|
|
|
After Bob gave me access, I started playing around with the different
|
|
features on the BBS. I could not download files because the Apple computer
|
|
can't handle the ZIP format. I started reading the different message
|
|
bases; now, I was introduced to RIME.
|
|
|
|
First Encounter with Messaging
|
|
I discovered right away the volume of message traffic on the BBS. I
|
|
started out reading just the main board. Then one night I got curious
|
|
about the Disabled echo, so I started reading that conference. I was doing
|
|
all of this on-line, and being totally blind, I couldn't effectively quote
|
|
the messages that I replied to. I decided to find a way to read the
|
|
messages off-line. I started exploring different methods and finally came
|
|
up with a crude way to download and read the mail.
|
|
|
|
I used the "RAC" command. I had selected the conferences, so all I
|
|
had to do was type the command, select my protocol, and switch disks when I
|
|
was told there was a full disk. That was downloading mail. I used a word
|
|
processor as an off-line reader, inserting the quoting material manually. I
|
|
spent hours laying in bed listening to the voice synthesizer read the mail.
|
|
After I finished reading and replying, I'd have to "upload" the replies.
|
|
Sometimes the procedures worked, sometimes not. I used the above method
|
|
for about a month, but the mail kept piling up. I couldn't use an off-line
|
|
reader because of my computer's limitations. I decided to get an IBM
|
|
compatible computer and that would solve all of my problems.
|
|
|
|
In February of 1991, I received my computer and I began to get the
|
|
files I would need. It took a whole month to set everything up because I
|
|
had a speech program that I just couldn't use. After purchasing a new
|
|
piece of software, installing the off-line reader, and downloading some
|
|
mail I was ready to get back on RIME again. Although I have had to leave
|
|
twice due to health problems, I am back to stay.
|
|
|
|
While reading the RIME News conference one day, I saw a request for
|
|
help with the newsletter. I immediately replied and I was asked to get
|
|
involved. I want to help blind people get the most out of their computers
|
|
and the RIME network. My goals are simple, help where and when I can. I
|
|
am familiar with WordPerfect, SLMR, OLX, MegaMail, Telix, and Flipper. I
|
|
have had fun on RIME so far, and I know I will still be here for years to
|
|
come.
