Benntartózkodásom alatt nekem “no computer” minősítésem volt, ami azt jelentette, hogy biztonsági fenyegetésnek számítana, ha bármilyen számítógépes hozzáférésem lenne. Sőt, ami azt illeti, még a telefonhoz való hozzáférést is veszélyesnek tartották, mert egy ügyész egyszer azt mondta egy szövetségi bírónak, hogyha letartóztatásom alatt használhatom a telefont, abba belefütyülve utasításokat küldhetek a légierő egy interkontinentális rakétájának. Abszurd, de a bírónak nem volt oka, hogy ne higgye el. Teljesen elszigetelve tartottak nyolc hónapig.

I learned later that these bastards actually called DEC and told them the Ark had been hacked, and gave my name as the hacker. Total betrayal. I had no suspicion these guys would dream of snitching on me, especially when they had reaped such rich rewards. It was the first time of many instances to come when the people I trusted would betray me.

I take a quick scan of his desk and check the top drawer and under the keyboard to see if he has left himself a note with his computer password. No luck. But not a problem.

Calling the Van Nuys LAPD station, I claimed to be from the DMV and said I was compiling a new database.
“Is your Requester Code 36472?”
“No, it’s 62883.”
(That’s a trick I’ve discovered very often works. If you ask for a piece of sensitive information, people naturally grow immediately suspicious. If you pretend you already have the information and give them something that’s wrong, they’ll frequently correct you—rewarding you with the piece of information you were looking for.)
