Stan Anderman (Anti-Defamation League): Some of this really extreme hatred
is an attempt to create an environment where violence becomes
acceptable.
Russ: Like most computer bulletin boards the Aryian Nation message is legal
and falls under free speech laws. However, a bill is scheduled to go
to congress this session outlawing the kinds of bulletin boards we saw
here tonight.
But, for the moment, hackers should not be too surprised if something
unusual pops up on their computer terminal. [Ahem, Russ, you did it
again. All computer users are *NOT* hackers.]

MIT Unix: Victim or Aggressor? January 23 - February 2, 1987
-------------------------------
Is the MIT system an innocent victim of hacker oppression or simply another
trap to capture unsuspecting hackers in the act?
It all started like this...

Lately I've been messing around on MIT's VAX in there Physics Department.
Recently some one else got on there and did some damage to files. However MIT
told me that they'll still trust us to call them. The number is:
617-253-XXXX
We have to agree to the following or we will be kicked off, they will create a
"hacker" account for us.
<1> Use only GUEST, RODNEY, and GAMES. No other accounts until the
hacker one is made. There are no passwords on these accounts.
<2> Make sure we log off properly. Control-D. This is a UNIX system.
<3> Not to call between 9 AM and 5 PM Eastern Standard Time. This
is to avoid tying up the system.
<4> Leave mail to GEORGE only with UNIX questions (or C). And leave our
handles so he'll know who we are.

Thanks Death for the MIT computer, I've been working on getting into them for
weeks. Here's another you can play around with:
617/258-XXXX
login:GUEST
Or use a WHO command at the logon to see other accounts, it has been a long
time since I played with that system, so I am unsure if the GUEST account
still works, but if you use the WHO command you should see the GUEST account
needed for applying for your own account.

Ok, sorry, but I just remembered the application account, its: OPEN
Gawd, I am glad I got that off my chest!

Also on that MIT computer Death listed, some other default accounts are:

Get the rest yourself, and please people, LEAVE THEM UNPASSWORDED!

MIT is pretty cool. If you haven't called yet, try it out. Just PLEASE make
sure you follow the little rules they asked us about! If someone doesn't do
something right the sysop leaves the gripe mail to me. Check out my directory
under the guest account just type "cd Dru". Read the first file.
