Hmm, is there any way to mod these symbian OS phones for a Tor-like effect? You could route calls and GPS signals through other phones. The minutes used would be a lot, but if you have onion phone networks that were per provider and had the free (verizon2verizon/tmobile2tmobile/etc.) in network calls, this might be doable if enough ppl got behind it. Hmm the govt. fails to respect their own laws so technology forces it down their throat... I like the sound of that. Would this be in violation of the E911 legislation? -JP "Or make the modifications into the first wide-spread symbian worm ;-)" -Definitely _not_ JP _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
