Rules Made Because of "Troublemakers" Behavior

Rules help maintain peace and order in society. They provide boundaries that protect us from doing harm due to some excessive behavior or action. At times, they are guidelines which could help us know what to do in certain situations.

However, in cases where there are no rules, it's difficult to determine to what extent we can do something, until somebody goes a bit too far prompting others to make rules against it. In this regard, people on Reddit shared what rules were made due to something they did.

The behaviors exhibited by these people were not ethically or morally wrong per se, it just bothered some people in authority. Some rules were a bit silly and funny like these two:

Others like this one seem to be necessary just to prevent any harm from befalling other people.

However, this rule made me crack up because it came out a misunderstanding, but the rule can be quite useful in the future, and really quite forward-thinking.

Yes a great little concise history. I recall learning a lot about networks those days which has helped me understand networks more so today. With the advent of SIP Trunking its hard to imagine dial tone over ethernet these days. I have searched hard and wide and found some of the special exar xr-2207 chips to make a blue box. Although they dont seem to work these days they do work on some old exchanges and are now a great tool for the projectMF.com asterisk hack. Yes use the blue box to 2600 your way into the asterisk for making outbound calls on voip. I have some chips for those that are interested and you will also need 16 push button switches.

this is a terrible article considering most of the facts presented. ONCE AGAIN, much like all of the other "hacking" articles out the on the Internet this article chooses to take the easy road and present information that is out of date, false, and just poorly written.

Phreakers don't really exist anymore. Mainly because almost all major telecom companies have switche dover to purely digital signals that doesn't use tone generation. Therefore, blackboxes no longer work. Spammers aren't hackers nor will they ever be considered hackers. Spammers are the same garbage that are called Phishers.

Forget it, Im done. Your article is not worth the time nor the effort to actually go into further detail on hacking because you obviously have placed your views into the same category as the rest of the world. This view is simply explained as, "Hacking is bad, all it has done is cause problems, I'm a pawn to society, I don't actually care about learning and I find FOX news to be the single most respected channel on Television to date."

Next time you write an article like this, grow some balls and do it better. Get your facts straight, stop reiterating the garbage we all know and hate because it continues to enforce the prejudice and biased opinions on hacking. Without hacking you would have had no Internet. Go read about Tim Berners-Lee or Richard Stallman.

Sweet jebus crap IO can you even walk out your front door without your head exploding? You're like a f*ckin emo kid with an 8ball of meth and no razors.

You were 'Done' with it your 3rd paragraph in? Maybe you should have just turned off the computer. Walked in to a library. Found a book about computer history sat down and STFU! But no, you'd have complained to the poor librarian about how outdated this material is.

Do your self a favor, grow some balls and start your own damn blog and tell us all how it is.....or just go hack your fucking Pascaline, bitch.
