LOD

Legion of Doom

*IS* Back!

[Yes, the LOD is alive and well. Please ignore any other message that makes contrary claims. Regardless of whether they appear to come from this account or any other. If you wish confirmation of this write to us. No other messages besides modified versions of this original release will ever be posted by the LOD. ALL other messages claiming to represent the LOD should be dismissed as the obvious hoaxes that they are! Unfortunately though anyone can easily post a message and make it appear to come from anyone else. A sad flaw, that ruins the integrity of the net. We regret any possible confusion, but again due to the nature of the net there is nothing that can be done about it.]

THE LOD IS, POSITIVELY, WITHOUT QUESTION, OR BASIS IN ANY DOUBT **BACK**!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IGNORE ANY MESSAGE CLAIMING OTHERWISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, that has not been a mis-print... the LOD has returned! The world's greatest hacking group has formally been reinstated to bring back dignity and respect to a scene that has rapidly deteriorated since its departure.

The LOD is not just another "Group" that goes around with upper/lower case names, trading in PBX's and VMB's and wouldn't know COSMOS if it hit them over the head. It's a sad day indeed when the term hacker is used to refer to every code and credit card abusing rodent in the nation. We intend through our presence and many innovative projects, not to mention the technical journal to restore the original values of technical exploration and knowledge that the term hacker was founded on.

The LOD imbodies the pinnacle of understanding that comes from relentless exploration of the "system" backwards and forwards. It is an organization dedicated to understanding the world's computer and telephone networks. Enabling everyone to progress forward in technology. The accumulated product of this - the Technical Journals, full of information unavailable anywhere except from telco manuals represents something to valuable to lose.

It is a true tragedy that after the great witch hunt that was Operation Sun Devil that the former LOD died. If the powers that be, think they can shut down real hackers by undertaking unprovoked, unneeded not to mention unconstitutional draconian acts they are mistaken. We will not be kept down!

We are a segment of society that enjoys what others label difficult and technical. Exploration into the uncharted reaches of technology is our calling. Information, learning and understanding is what we are made of. As the technology revolution impacts us all, it is the hackers and not the medieval statutes of the land that will lead us forward.

This will be the primary of purpose the new, revived LOD - the assembly and release of a Technical Journal. The previous 4 issues, now several years old BADLY need updating. If you don't have the first 4 TJ's, and would like them (they are highly recommended for anyone interested in learning more about this field) they may can be found on ftp.eff.org and numerous other sites that carry underground files. Or of course on any large BBS or hack/phreak board.

The Journal will rely heavily on reader submitted articles and information, so anything you wish to contribute would be GREATLY appreciated. Acceptable submissions would include ORIGINAL articles on various systems, services, security discussions, technical specifications and documentation. Computer and telephone related subjects are not the only ones acceptable. If you remember the former journals had articles concerning interrogation, physical security among others.

The next LOD Technical Journal will comprise almost entirely of freelance or reader submitted articles. So without YOUR contributions it can not proceed! Solid progress is being made in the next Technical Journal by both freelancers and group members. But bigger is better, as you can never have too much information or instruction. SEND UP ALL ORIGINAL ARTICLES FOR PUBLICATION!!!

If you wish to hold the wonderful honour of being an LOD Member (Won't this look good on the resume), you may apply by contacting us. The qualifications should need no elaboration.

Regardless of the unbased claims made by others, the LOD is as strong and capable as it ever was. Legendary groups like the LOD are not born this way. They take time to form, and restarting almost from scratch almost 3 years later, time is obviously needed. We say to all the skeptics, hang on to your premature judgements until we're on our feet and judge by actions not opinions.

To set the record straight once and for all, and to convince the skeptics that doubt the validity of all this, the Legion of Doom >IS< BACK. Next month, a full-fledged Technical Journal will be widely released, and you're doubts and questions will be once and for all answered with uncontestable fact.

In addition to needing articles for the upcoming Journals, some sites on the net to aid in distribution would also be welcomed. Someone willing to donate the resources necessary to operate a subscription type mailing list service is also needed. Send all offers and articles to our email account or P.O. Box...

Reach us at:

Or by blindingly quick, faster than light mail at:

LOD
P.O. Box 104

(Closing date for article submissions to the LOD Technical Journal Number 5 is: Monday 14 June, 1993. Release date: Friday 18 June, 1993.

Since we have no monetary or contractual obligation to anyone, these dates are of course tentative. But since or at least initially we will rely almost entirely on reader submissions a date is needed to get potential writers into gear.

Note that the LOD does not engage or condone illegal or criminal activities. This would cover, but is not limited to, theft of long distance services, credit fraud or data destruction/alteration.
