- walshemj 11y agoI used to work at British telecom with a guy who had been a phreak and got caught hacking Prestel - one day one of BT's security (SD Directorate) guys who had busted him bumped into him at work and was not pleased. I also worked for the Systems administrator who was in charge of the machine in the Prince Philip hack.
