"It's a question of freedom of speech, something that has stood up for the last couple hundred years, and I think the Internet should definitely continue the tradition."
--- Emmanuel Goldstein on Off The Hook June 18, 1996.
"The FBI was not driving this investigation. it was the victims getting together and getting even."
--- February 19, 1995 USENET posting by Mark Seiden, the network security expert that helped track down Kevin Mitnick.
"Value your freedom, or you will lose it, teaches history. 'Don't bother us with politics,' responds those who don't want to learn."
--- Richard Stallman. Protect your freedoms. Protect your rights. Protect your children. Read the IIRG Labs Blog and Boycott HOPE.

Have you ever lost an issue of $2600 Magazine that you paid for and would like back? Do you wish you could read $2600 Magazine on your Linux computer? Ever had your issues of $2600 Magazine confiscated by your school administrators? Would you like to preview an issue of $2600 Magazine before you buy it? Think information should not be $6.25? Ever wonder why 25% of each issue of $2600 Magazine is taken up by letters/meeting info/marketplace, when that information could be on their website instead of taking up valuable magazine space? (Hint: That wouldn't put money in Golddigger's pocket) Ever wonder why $2600 Magazine doesn't pay their writers? (Hint: That would take money from Golddigger's pocket) Were you ever mad that $2600 Magazine took an article you wrote off your BBS, added their name, and made a profit from it? Ever wonder why issues of $2600 Magazine are not placed on any USENET groups? Have a hard time reading the fine print in issues of $2600 Magazine and wish you could "zoom in" on the words? Don't want to cut down anymore trees for making paper? Ever wonder why back issues of $2600 Magazine cost $6 when they used to sell for $5, $4, $2 or even $1? Don't want to pay the extra corporate fee just because you paid attention in school, created some jobs, and help the economy? Don't want to pay extra just because you live overseas? Ever wonder why $2600 Magazine uses fear mongering, sensationalism, snake oil, and cheap scare tactics to get people to purchase their little magazine? Are you a parent that doesn't want to give your address to a bunch of child molesters? Don't want to contribute to Manny Golddigger's six-figure a year profit? Don't want to catch faggot AIDS from having a member of the $2600 Magazine staff touch a copy of your magazine? Ever wonder why $2600 Magazine always blames others for their problems, and never takes any responsibility?
Well... Download them here you dumbass!

Did you ever wonder why each issue of $2600 Magazine has at least three (often fake) letters-to-the-editor telling of some conspiracy to hide their magazine issues at newstands or bookstores? It's really because $2600 is a physically small magazine and is usually placed on the front shelf of the magazine stand. Lazy people who flip through the magazines on the back shelves will then often place them back on the front shelf - instead of in their normal locations. This will cause those magazines on the front shelf (and especially physically small magazines) to become "hidden" after awhile. If it's not noticed by an employee (or helpful customer), it can stay in this condition for awhile.
Of course, Manny Golddigger and his merry band of fascist nutcases uses this for an excuse to drum up sales for his "forbidden & suppressed hacker magazine" by all the people who lack rational thought.
"It's a little unsettling that we're getting more letters like this in recent months. We're not aware of any changes in the various chains that carry us but we'll keep an eye on this. There's no question that there are many who would like to keep us off the shelves. Our readers and their attentiveness are the best defense we could hope for." --- Example of this in Vol. 21, No. 4.
I usually place a copy of Nuts & Volts, Circuit Cellar, QST, or even Soldier of Fortune over issues of $2600 Magazine just to piss off Golddigger anyway - and you should too.
Somewhere at a Barnes & Noble in Wisconsin is a magazine shelf with, right out in front mind you, six issues of $2600 Magazine - that infamous "forbidden & suppressed hacker magazine." Way on the very back shelf, practically out-of-reach, sits a single, obscured issue of Jane's Defence Weekly. Don't expect Manny Golddigger to mention this!
Or maybe the book stores don't carry $2600 because it sucks? Nah.. it's always someone else's problem...
Another example of $2600 Magazine's sensationalism? On the January 14, 1997 episode of Off The Hook, while talking about the lack of encryption in U.S. cellular phone system (and how stupid Americans are), Phiber Optik says: "... it's not some simple, silly little exclusive-OR kind of thing, like they do in, in digital cellular ..." This, of course, is wrong. The reason digital cellular systems XOR their datastreams with pseudo-random number (PN) generators is to "spread" their RF signal to make it more "jam" resistant. By using orthogonal PN-codes, multiple cellular users (up to around 64) can share the same small frequency range. This is done to increase the "users-per-spectrum" ratio. It's NOT done for encryption reasons (the codes are known), like Golddigger's posse stomps their little feet about. Mark gets a pass 'cuz he's just plain cool. Golddigger, of course, only cares about increasing those subscriber numbers. Remember, only John Markoff would confuse facts for a little profit. Bleat... Bleat... the $2600 sheep.
Also note the advertisement to "Free Mumia", a convicted cop killer. Sheesh... If $2600 readers ran the world, murderers would go free and Bill Gates would be in jail. If they can support killing cops, I can support killing Eric Corley...
And another? View this picture. It's the words "This is not propaganda" from the Fifth HOPE cash cow, err, "convention" advertisement strategically placed so it appears within the reflection of a FOX News billboard. But wait, wasn't it lie-by-rule CBS News that lied and spread propaganda? It's common for leftist thugs to create fictitious people, objects, and enemies to help spread their own style of propaganda. You'll never see $2600 Magazine mention that fake CBS story, or the election fraud CBS tried to commit (until they read this, that is). This is even further proof that $2600 is the true enemy of the people.
Here's something you'll never see in an issue of $2600 Magazine! When Golddigger's beloved ACLU is not out suppressing freedom of speech, trying to destroy the Boy Scouts, helping September 11-style terrorists with their "political correctness" nonsense, blocking prayers in schools, while suing to provide Korans to terrorists in prison (books bought with U.S. tax payer money, figure that one out!) - they are revising the First Amendment! (screen shot) Thankfully, they have since corrected this. FIGHT THE POWER!
More lies and propaganda! Look at this website: http://www.2600.com/rnc2004/index.html, it shows how delusional and evil the $2600 staff is. Sidewalks and public spaces are for hard working, tax paying, legal U.S. citizens only - it's in the constitution. You have NO right of harassing innocent people trying to go to work, school, shop, etc. Wait... that's right, most of those "protesters" (Democrats) don't have jobs or pay taxes, they just sit around and complain, while doing drugs and stealing. Stick to your fancy gated communities, million dollar music and movies deals, selling of other people's old BBS files, and leave us normal people alone. Where's the outrage little sheep?
Here is another example of the fascism supported by Manny Golddigger and his little posse. View some of vigil pictures for Stanley "Tookie" Williams held at San Quentin on December 12, 2005. The little bastards in the green vests are members of the International Socialist Organization (ISO), heros to people like Manny Golddigger. Note how they attack other people and cover up any protest signs they don't agree with. Also note how they cover signs using a boom microphone from their radio stations. Oh the irony! You won't hear that mentioned on Off The Hook!
"Clogging the streets, tying up police resources, and leaving behind a trail of anti-Bush propaganda litter" is not listed anywhere in the Constitution. Stick to destroying ROTC campus offices, smashing windows at Starbucks, idolizing murderers, and protesting people wearing fur coats (while wearing non-biodegradable, artificial plastic clothes).
"Please spare us your bleeding heart commentary on the RNC protesters in Philadelphia this past summer (as mentioned in the editorial in 17:3 and again in a letter from Prehistoric Net Guy in 17:4). I work in Philadelphia and witnessed it firsthand. I saw a chaotic group of drunken douche-bags with no political message or common cause who showed up simply to vandalize our city. The "puppet factory" also had a nice supply of bats, pepper spray, and other goodies that Prehistoric Retard forgot to mention..."
- Letter from "Your Mom" in Vol. 18, No. 1. The $2600 Magazine editor drones then proceed to belittle this person who was actually there and had the balls to stand up to $2600's lies and propaganda. Sound familiar?
Ever notice that the people who whine about "being silenced" never seem to shut the fuck up? Hint: It increases magazine sales.
Now here's a real story of "being silenced" you won't be hearing from Boyfucker & The Gay Pedo Posse at Horny Old Pedophiles Everywhere!
Imagine having your valedictorian speech censored by some "open-minded liberals" because they don't agree with your point-of-view. Here is a hint, cover your ears if you don't like it, or is only Stephen Colbert allowed to use tax-payer funded audio equipment to speak his mind? If Manny Golddigger is allowed to speak his mind, others should be allowed to also! Don't expect the ACLU to help though, if they don't go after Muslims controlling our schools, they won't being helping out here either.
Fight Big Brother!
Oh no! Sales of $2600 Magazine must be really down... Manny Golddigger has yet another method of frightening his little kiddie followers. George W. Bush is Adolf Hitler! Yes, that's what $2600 Magazine wants you to believe. But wait, Manny Golddigger is a homosexual, and Hitler killed homosexuals! The fact that Manny Golddigger is still alive (and still selling old BBS files, err... "publishing") then proves Bush is not Hitler! LOL! But that's not good for selling magazines or HOPE tickets, so they won't be mentioning this.
If George W. Bush is really watching you... Then you better not subscribe to $2600 Magazine! I'm sure Georgie will personally add you to his Gestapo watch list. After all... Manny Golddigger wouldn't lie to us, now would he? Be a man! Avoid being "watched" and download issues of $2600 Magazine off the Internet!
Looky what we have here... I'm sure Boyfucker & The Gay Pedo Posse will be outside the New York Times protesting their little hearts out on this one! Wait... No they won't. If it doesn't put money in their pockets, they'll just promptly ignore it.
When the New York Times lies in a story about someone $2600 Magazine likes, Manny Golddigger stomps his little feet and pouts.
When the New York Times lies in a story about someone $2600 Magazine doesn't like, Manny Golddigger does nothing.
Do you really want these people looking out for you?
"Pakistani men with the remains of a missile fired at a house in the Bajur tribal zone near the Afghan border."

This is torture in progress!!!!!!
Unbelievable. "There is no liberal bias in the media," claims Boyfucker & The Gay Pedo Posse operating at $2600 Magazine's little headquarters. Hint #1: That's an old, unexploded artillery shell. Hint #2: The ragheads are storing there ammunition in villages surrounded by children. Hint #3: Artillery shells are often used in IEDs, so their storage "bunkers" are legitimate targets. Here's a good overview of this blatant propaganda.
Eric Corley, You Are Not A Number!
Demand that all child molesters have their names, addresses, Social Security numbers, and which "hacker" magazines they edit, made publicly available. Also demand that all federal gun registries be destroyed so that the real victims can finally fight back against these sick criminals.
Thought Puzzle
Albert Einstein (when not stealing other people's ideas at his patent office job) used to develop little "thought puzzles" to help him understand physics and the inner workings of the Universe. Let's try doing that with $2600 Magazine once...

- $2600 Magazine now uses Kevin Mitnick as their main cash cow. Anybody else attempting to profit (as they see it) from Mitnick's story is immediately demonized. The peak of this cash cow is the release of the movie Freedom Downtime ($30). It's embarrassingly retarded. The amount of propaganda in Freedom Downtime ($30) would bring a cringe to Hitler's face. The point of the movie is to attack both Shimomura and Markoff, while ignoring the people Mitnick harassed. Freedom of speech and freedom of the press apparently only apply to $2600 Magazine.

Manufactured Fear
Democrats do it.
Slashdot does it.
Digg does it.
Communists do it.
The media does it.
Mitnick profits from it.
$2600's lawyers do it.One of the numerous cons that $2600 Magazine likes to run is that there is always someone out there trying to shut down the operation of their little "hacker" magazine. The most obvious case for this was back in 1998 or so when $2600 Magazine nearly went out of business. Or at least that is what Boyfucker wanted you to think.
If it costs too much to publish $2600 Magazine - why not just give it away for free!
Those enormous publishing and distribution costs won't exist if you just post everything on the Internet. You could also have people mail in a dollar or two, along with a SASE, for a photo copy of the article they wish to read about. This all costs very little. But that doesn't put money in Golddigger's pocket! So you'd better expect more "end of the world" scenerios or "Mitnick Cures Cancer" movie projects the next time Golddigger needs a few extra bucks for his satellite TV bill.
"I hate how the media always portrays 'hackers' as criminals and mindless idiots. Hey! Lets take over the P.A. system at a K-Mart and get free hamburgers from Burger King! That'll show 'em!"
Another example of manufactured fear that gets $2600's little-boys underwear in a bunch, is government-sponsored spying and updating 70 year old telco surveillance laws. Boyfucker and the Gay Pedo Posse demand access to all these rights, but they don't actually help people fight or maintain these rights. Government spying is bad! Buy our magazine! Private citizens spying is bad! Buy our magazine! There is even an episode of Off The Hook where Manny Golddigger calls for more airport security and screening! Yes, it's true! But, don't expect him to reference that old episode ever again!
See how it works? By flip-flopping on subjects, especially controversial ones, $2600 Magazine tweaks their views to which ever will get them more subscribers. Boyfucker lives in a mansion for a reason!
"The world is going to end! There is only one way to save it - buy our magazine!"
Oh no! Big corporations! They are all going to kill us!
Here's a hint Boyfucker, the real problem is big government. I know that contradicts your little Marxist-Leninist-Communist agenda, but it is true! If some "big corporation" is doing something you don't like, then don't buy their products! It's that simple. What do you think people did 50 years ago? Stomp their little feet and pout in front of their mommies like you do? No, they actually did something about it. Duh! Don't like Microsoft? Write your own damn operating system. Don't bitch to us just because you are too fucking stupid to write your own software. Don't like a T.V. or radio station? Start your own, dumbass! This isn't rocket science. All big government does is screw stuff up and slow things down. If you want to fight some real problems, go after the corrupt labor and teacher unions. Of course, you won't ever think of doing that. If you stopped molesting little boys for just one second, and picked up a few history books, maybe you could actually learn something, instead of relying on your little clueless brat pack.
It's starting already! Horny Old Pedophiles Everywhere #7 might not take place in 2008!
Apparently, New York is now a very small city with only one hotel. I'm sure with a little work they could find another hotel or conference room to hold it at, or even a park or campground. You know a really good place to hold it at? Boyfucker's house! Don't count on that one, though! As long as the hotel can guarantee rooms sold, I'm sure most hotels will gladly handle the next HOPE money-making scheme, err... "conference." There is only one problem, instead of the money going straight into Golddigger's pocket, the hotel will probably want more money to clean up after all the nice, responsible "hackers" destroy the rooms in the hotel. Oh... How much do you want to bet that the answer won't include Manny Golddigger getting a part-time job? Hehe...
An Inconvenient Truth
Should Manny Golddigger kill himself?
Yes!!!
Not only will the world be less one evil child molester, but his underage victims won't have to worry about testifying in any court trial. And the child's parents won't have to worry about "hunting down" Boyfucker just because some liberal judge set him free.
You'll also regain more of your civil rights back.
Thanks to people like Manny Golddigger, and the Communist bastards at the ACLU, the United States is being flooded with third-world trash and assorted sub-human immigrants. Since lower I.Q. people tend to vote Democrat, this is a good way for leftist thugs to keep their political power intact. But, thanks to this turd-world illegal invasion, we now have increased crime and, of course, increased police presence. You can thank people like Manny Golddigger and the ACLU everytime a little old lady has to pass through an invasive security check - all while the security guards let some shit-skin sneak through out of fear of being sued for "racial profiling" (whatever that means).
"Racial Profiling" Apparently Not Racial Profiling * Interviewing some nut in a turban * Interviewing 1,500 white males with beards who is sketching building layouts. during the "Unabomber" scare. * Monitoring some Arab who spent time * Democrats looking for new voters in all black along the Pakistan/Afghanistan neighborhoods. border. * Democrats using voter registration signs * The police pulling over a black man, in Spanish to get more Mexican voters. at night, who was driving in a car with tinted windows. * Mexicans illegally entering the U.S. to leech off the white man. * Exactly how does Black Entertainment Television choose its videos? * Manny Golddigger hitting on little white boys.

Internet is bad! * During the 1980s: * Today, Iran & North Korea have nuclear programs. Nuclear weapons programs were bad! Where are those "anti-nuke" protesters now? * Fighting for your privacy rights. * Kevin Mitnick was stealing the IDs of dead babies, and what do we get? Nothing but silence! * DeCSS is free speech! * IRC logs of Emmanuel chatting with little boys. Umm... Not free speech! * ID cards are a bad idea! * Hey!

Wow... Boyfucker and his little Gay Pedo Posse sure are hypocritical! Hopefully, he'll do the correct thing and the world will be a better place.
"I would like to thank you for coming out with such a great magazine. I started my subscription last summer (I just became a lifer) and find it a very useful tool as a person employed in the IT field and as a person who just enjoys using computers. My only fear is that the US government (under the control of the 'corporate suits') will try and shut your publication down for trying to expose these security flaws/holes in various computer systems and software packages in your magazine thanks to the DMCA. Of course, if you're silly enough to try to use the First Amendment as an excuse then they'll have that deemed against the DMCA and have that section removed from the Constitution."
--- Letter from "James" in $2600 Magazine Vol. 19, No. 2.
James, James, James... Sigh... Boy, you sure are a brainwashed stupid idiot. The only "corporation" you should be worrying about is $2600 Enterprises, Inc. and their little band of lawyers who enjoy harassing real hackers. If $2600 Magazine ever gets shutdown, it will be because Manny Golddigger is thrown in jail for being a pedophile. Don't count on that being said while defending the "First Amendment" in an issue of $2600 Magazine! Are you glad you spent all that money on a lifetime subscription now? Hehe...
Notes / Miscellaneous
- Here is an index and article listing of most $2600 Magazine issues.
- Freedom Downtime ($30) - Kevin Mitnick "fakeumentary" by the idiots at $2600 Magazine. Save yourself $30.00 on Manny Golddigger's favorite cash cow and protect your wallet from one of the most greedy profiteering gluttons. Maybe Golddigger can call the MPAA! Dohh! (Audio Extract [29.2M MP3])
- The Art of Deception - Remember Mitnick didn't profit from his crimes. The families of the dead babies he stole IDs from have no feelings.
- The Art of Intrusion - No, no profit motive here at all. His lawyers and Golddigger didn't whip up any publicity. Remember: When Kevin exploits the Open Records Act he's a hero, when the FBI does it to catch killers, it's like the end of the world.
Remember - Your telephone and library records are confidential, unless your last name is Woodward, Bernstein, or Mitnick!
- DocDroppers is a website for hosting hacking/phreaking text files via a Wiki-style interface. Some of the articles they host have appeared in past issues of $2600.

- Information Wants to be Free? Phrack #44 editorial.
- Good Info on Jello Biafra $2600's "Hacker Ambassador." A clueless, hypocritical, rich, selfish, asshole who profits from other people's work and lives in a million dollar house. No wonder Manny Golddigger likes him!
- Good Info on Noam Chomsky Another one of $2600's idols - who also happens to be a clueless, hypocritical, very rich, copyright-holding, Holocaust-denying asshole. No wonder Manny Golddigger likes him! (Original)

Listen for them admitting: using another person's office and office supplies to make their little newsletter (so much for rights & privacy!), them admitting they steal and profit from other people's old BBS files, and them admitting they use voice mail systems to avoid listening to their customers - while complaining when other companies do the same thing.
- Reviews and Comments on H2K2 You won't see these mentioned in $2600 Magazine!
- Greg Newby Hypocrisy One of the $2600/HOPE assholes. He's bitching about the U.N. sanctions against Iraq during the 1990s. If the U.N. removed Saddam back then, there would be no need for sanctions. Also note the rant against the Kosovo bombings. Not helping those Muslims being killed by the Serbs was one of the excuses cited by the 9/11 terrorists. Oh the irony!
- GIST Communications David Ruderman, one of the co-founders of $2600 Magazine, is their Vice President of Technology (Mirror). GIST Communications received several million dollars in financial backing from Neptuno G.m.b.H. Remember this whenever $2600 Magazine complains they have no money. Hah!

- ATTENTION PARENTS $2600 Magazine is run by a bunch of fucking pedophiles.

"Hmm... I think I'll start a 'hacker' magazine with articles written by other people but I'll keep the profits to myself. I'll refuse to take any personal responsibility and blame all my problems on someone else! When sales are sagging, I'll ask Hollywood to make a movie about me and my teenaged boy posse, then claim I'm being 'suppressed.' LOL! While bitching about the telephone company selling long distance service, I'll sell T-shirts, hats, DVDs, and stickers! I'll spend 25% of each issue complaining about how dumb everyone else is, but I won't ever mention the word 'thanks' to those people who helped me to get where I am today! Slap a six dollar price tag on it and sue anyone giving it away for free! I'll never have to get a real job!"

People in Africa!
Because of failed racist, Marxist policies, the United Nations, selfish Canadians, and assholes like Manny Golddigger, your individual countries are being destroyed. You can fight back though! Edit and sell any of these files as you wish, and use the money to buy basic living supplies (food, water, shelter, medicine, weapons, etc.) to help protect yourself and your family. I know that contradicts what those rich college professors say, but trust me, it works!
