Brings back memories of wardialing and phreaking. Phreaking was trying to find switches and other tricks in the phone system to make long distance calls for free or just to fuck up the phone system in general. Back in the old days pre google drop box or torrents people would mostly wardial to try and find business FTPs that were poorly defended and could be taken over and the number and creds would be posted on BBSes or message boards so everyone could use the FTP to file share games and Pr0n. Usually at least until Monday morning when the sysadmin would go back to work and discover what happened.

Interesting read.
