Welcome to The Hackers Voice!

The Hackers Voice is a community designed to bring back hacking and phreaking to the UK. Hacking is the exploration of Computer Science, Electronics, or anything that has been modified to preform a function that it wasn't originally designed to preform. Hacking IS NOT EVIL, despite what the mainstream media says. We do not break into people / corporations' computer systems and networks with the intent to steal information, software or intellectual property.

We are explorers. In the last decade we primarily focused ourselves on exploring the ever intriguing if not fascinating realm that is Computer and Network Security. Some of the greatest Programmers and Engineers of all time have been hackers. Another great hacker, Steve Wozniak, creator of Apple Computers. Steve created the Apple 1 from spare electronic parts from HP calculators! That my friends is a hack! Linus Torvalds, creator of the Linux Operating System is a Hacker, he created Linux, one of the greatest pieces of software ever created. Linux is not evil, it is revolutionary. It makes up 80% of the worlds Web Servers, and is used by numerous massive corporations. If a hackers Operating System was evil, would Enterprising businesses use it? I think not.

Phone Phreaks are hackers of the phone system. Phreaking is where most hackers start with the curiosity of how the phone system works. Eventually we go around the system, poking it to see if there is any weaknesses or goodies to be discovered. Although in the commercialised capitalistic business world, exploiting the phone system might seem criminal, but the real crime is the monopoly that telcos have over the system, and the outrageous prices that they charge.

Information should be free. Information wants to be free. Information belongs to the world!

We are a collective of hackers from around the United Kingdom as well as from the rest of the world, who strive to bring back the 'scene' to what it once was. We hope you join us in this quest to bring the UK Hacking community together.

.:THV Update:.

THV is happy to inform you that we have completed a rather large project to move our hosting to a more manageable, cost effective and expandable hosting solution.

With this we are can inform you that you are now able to use HTTPS to visit our main site as well as the forums,

Just put https:// in front of our URL.

However, SSL is yet to be fully implemented over all of the forums and we will update you once that has taken place.


We are also happy to announce another project, More information will come shorty but I can reveal that we are going to be hosting "community micro sites" where you have a choice of either a word press blog for FREE or 200megs FREE hosting with 1 database connection.

We may come up with a few more products so that we can charge people for :) well we have to make some money some how to keep going!.

Lastely i would like to add that we are hosted with a Carbon neutral hosting company.



So we can assure a future of many hacks to come.

Gary Lost his appeal hearing

The Hackers Voice is sad to report our recent guest on Hacker Voice Radio, Gary Mckinnon has lost his appeal hearing today.

UK hacker loses extradition fight - BBC News Article

When we interviewed Gary at the end of Season 6, he mentioned that he may appeal to the European Court for Human Rights. I hope that he does go ahead with this, as this is a severe breach in human rights in what is usually called a civilised society.

We can only hope that things will turn around for him, and we once again send our support to Gary, his family and friends

Stay tuned for the release of HVTV3, and check the forums for any new developments!

In the mean time, hack on :)

Things Changing

Hokay!

Things are a changing! We have a couple of things on the go - first of all, we HAVE THE BLOODY STREAM SERVER WORKING.

The crowd goes wild!

So clicky click on the banners spotted around the website and you shall hear tunes and podcast served right to your MP3 Player. It's on a 100MBit pipe, so we can handle plenty of users. We've also sorted the stream server out so that we can now do live shows again!

The crowd goes even more wild!

Which brings me on to another item.

The IRC network is now bringing itself together. Come into the IRC network during showtime (if you can't be bothered to read up, it's at 9PM GMT Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday) and chat with us. You can get to the IRC by going to....

irc.hackervoice.co.uk

It's probably going to be a bit shaky at first, expect NetSplit's for the first week or so. But it will be our new home.

Last thing: we're up on designing a new look website. Stay tuned for some new awesomeness

Have Phun!

Interest from interesting sources.

So I was bored this evening and I thought i would go and grep some of the webserver logs. I came upon some very interesting hits from some very specific domains. One of which being the domain of NASA.gov.

We also had a load of hits from local councils around the UK. I am guessing this is from the very nice people that go to public libraries and use their Internet services. Should think that a normal amount of stuff comes from people around the world from their home and so on. I was not too interested about the end users. I was looking for direct hits from .gov .mil and such like domains. When looking through the logs I did see a couple of hits from microsoft.com. Now assuming that this is a pure hit, not some one spoofing this is quite interesting.

Some what concerning is the hits we got from www.dera.gov.uk the Defense Evaluation and Research Agency. They have links with the MOD. Of course alongside the NASA hits, this is far more facinateing, however cool it is for NASA to hit the site this blows the shit out of the water. Now as the site just appears to be a poorly made placeholder it begs to think why or how my webserver resolved the domain back to that. The only logical assumption would be that it was some one on the dera.gov.uk network browsing to our site.

Furthermore as dera.gov.uk is quite close to home, their eqaul partners over the pond military, army.gov seemed to take an interest in us too! Yes, thats right. army.gov hits on our webserver. The US millitary want to listen to HVR? well I hope we don't affect them too much. anyway I guess that about wraps it up from me. I wanted to aslo update this blog/news section of our site more anyway. I will be posting some more updates very shortly.

Take care, Love and hugs to our government snoopy people xxxx

New Streaming Network

We have a new stream server - a *permenant* one. However we still have some bits and pieces to sort out (like DNS and load balancing ...), so get into the IRC if you want to tune in for the show, live.

We will be streaming syndicated content including the Hope Number 6 talks, Off the Hook ... and more - 24/7. And of course the daily Hacker Voice Radio show as usual at 9PM GMT.

We are also thinking about adding new shows of our own to the lineup, if you've got an idea for a show then get into the forums and tell us about it

IRC is at:
b3l1al.homelinux.net
#hvr


Currently you can tune into the stream here:

Open that in your favourite media player and you're good to go.

Emergency broadcast System

Belials computer died so for the moment we are flitting from stream server to stream server until we get back up on our feet again. There are great plans afoot, hopefully. Until then we've set up a dyn dns hostname which will always point to the stream server we're using each night. This will be:

http://hvr-ebs.no-ip.info:8000/

If that doesn't work, try port 8000 instead. Unfortunately we can't remap ports from the service we're using.

For the uninformed, the Hacker Voice TV 2 DVD has been released, and is available for purchase on the website. The DVD has loads of extra features which you won't be getting with the Internet release, and is way better quality. DVD owners also get extra freebies not included on the DVD itself, providing they are reasonabley observant.
