The phone number is seared into my brain for life, I think.

I can't remember my girlfriend's phone number, but the number of BBSs I called 30+ years ago? That's stuck in there until the day I die.


Can’t remember the last time I called Ripco or Lunatic Labs but I still know their numbers better than any other phone numbers, including my own.


RaT CiTY in Seattle had 24-666-47 and that'll be in my brain forever too...


CULT OF THE DEAD COW.

TODAY. TOMORROW. FOREVER.


The EFF is absolutely in the wrong on this. ISPs are private businesses, and they have every right (and responsibility!) to enforce their own Acceptable Use Policies/Terms of Service. Anyone who cries "Freedom of Speech" either hasn't thought this through, or else has no idea what they're talking about... Hurricane Electric is not a government entity.

We are living in Popper's "Paradox of Tolerance". Nazis need to be punched, but de-platforming them is pretty good, too.


wut.

cDc has been around since 1984. L0pht was founded in... 1991, iirc?
