PHONES IN THE MEDIA- Beige Boxing featured on USA network
« on: June 06, 2009, 06:04:04 PM »
In the premiere of the 3rd season of the television series "Burn Notice", the main character, Michael Westen, breaks into a hotel utility closet and beige boxes using a conveniently available lineman's handset to make " a quick, untraceable phone call". Seeing phone phreaking skills used in my favorite action show was a pretty cool thing for me. Just thought I'd post something here.

This week on Burn Notice they did voice code hacking like Brad did to Bell Canada. He had to trick someone to get recordings of him saying his full name and and every number from 0 to 9.

In season 2 during the bank robbery episode, he connected a cellphone to a network hub or something to get past a cell phone jammer.
