FWIW, Blue Boxing does still work... but you need find a country that is still using old switches.  You call the international operator, ask for an operator in country X (used to be Turkey btw I think), and then blast your tones and grab the trunk, then dial out using MF tones.

If you try all of the small countries you eventually will find one ;)

I did lots of hacking on my Amiga 500 and 1200.  Anyone ever used tymnet and sprintnet (X25) to get to QSD and Lutz in the 90s?

I can't believe I still remember this:
Lutz: 26245400080177
QSD: 0208057040540

:D

That's cool after Hawaii went down most peole gave it away I just found different ways. Zimbabwe worked for a while also but that was long ago . One of my favorites in Astralia was you could dial 6121380 dead air then dial anywhere no blue box required use a tone dialer and call anywhere. This worked for a very long time. Tone dialers were good for all sorts of things. On a another note a kind person I met on Amiga.org transferred two of my drive into a HDF format. I now have The Phraud BOX and various other white box and blue box programs which Have eluded me for so long.


I probably should have said "does MOST LIKELY still work"... it has been many years now ... but I am sure there are still many very old switches running in small poor countries.  

Would be a fun project to find out.
