Thank you. This has been a public service broadcast on behalf of real Hackers everywhere.

I felt like making this clarification myself, but I figured it was pointless as the mass media has repeatedly tarred both hackers (people who push the limits of their own computers and systems without harming or stealing from others) and crackers with the same brush for so long, 99% of people probably wont accept theres a difference anymore.

Could you please let me know who this mythical ISP is please!

Face it no matter how you try to justify it you're stealing and that makes you a thief.

'I pay for the top tier......' just does cut it, you already admitted that you use it to bypass STM and your using a 50Mb config file.

By the way you have signed up for STM it was part of the T&C's if you didn't like when it came into force you should of canceled you account. But then you wouldn't be able to use your pitiful excuse of 'I pay for the top tier'

You have also admitted that you have managed to use one of the 50Mbit profiles in a non 50Mbit area, how's that only getting the service you pay for?

why pay for what you can get for free i usually use Business version for free anyway

Err, can you please learn to quote correctly, that looks like I'm admitting to stealing a service.

Re: Why hackers still here ?
 
I have to admit I quite admire the script writers that can crack code or find exploits. Not impressed with those that use their skills to write malicious code though. I quite like the arguements that go around the scene in the NFOs of certain things when someone propers someone elses cracked release. lol

I also do no judge harshly those who modify cable boxes or buy those capable with regular firmware updates also I do not really care about those who use cloned modems. I partly blame VM for making it easy anyway the modifications to the boxes have been around for years specially if you do include the chipped analogue boxes.
I am on a retention deal which is good enough value so I do not feel the need to get it free.

The thing is this (and this is directed to those who come here and brag about their so called skills) cableforum has close ties to VM it liaises with some staff to offer support to those who need it. Because of this tie those who come here and brag or whatever they do are going to be met with hostility and at the end of the day just stir it up for the rest of us. You have you own underground your own forums why do you feel the need to stir up crap here? its not big and its not clever

I know of VM staff that do it also but this is a tech support forum . If you have the skills you say you do put them to good use and help people here with netwrok problems and the like
