I have somehow found myself doing a lighthearted talk on retro hacking this Wednesday. Would anyone here happen to know anything about it?

    I dunno, having payphones on every other street corner in the 80’s-90’s can seem like a foreign concept today.

      That would be because the notion of having a pay phone on every corner is.

      That is beside the point. The phone is just a pathway, the hacking is the same. The phone gets the hacker to the end user. Today the cellphon/tablet/pc is just a pathway to the end user.

      When it comes to tech as much as everyone thinks it changes the more it stays the same.
