Well, I think that it's easier to sit around phreaking somebody like Eddie
Bauer or some other catalog store and wait for the perople who kindly give
out their credit card numbers and expiration dates. Problem then is
hsipping, but if you try hard enough, somebody will ship to you without
asking questions. Not that I have the capability to do this, but hacking is
all in how you frame the goal. Is it to steal? or is it because you can.
Usually the latter.
