Check it out and see the action. "looped" cards are worthless. If you loop your card or get it looped, it'll cost you $50 for professional "cleaning", and that's not guaranteed. > moneymaker for them. Cable and DSS are like razors and videogame > consoles. The hardware (or razor handle) is sold at a loss. If you're Are you saying I should steal razors or razor handles? Anyway, I followed the DSS hacking group for some time because I wanted to know more about the topic, but wasn't really interested in stealing service. What I learned convinced me that, if you choose to engage in DTV hacking, don't even THINK about saving any money on service because the cost of equipment, time, and cleaning services will cost you more than you were probably ever going to spend on legitimate service. As for tracking you down, the satellite companies do track you down in this way. Once a popular "hack" has been identified, the satellite companies creates a reverse "hack". This does NOT merely restore your card to an original state. It instead destroys the programming on your card. You are now left with the difficult and expensive choice of calling your provider and telling them your card got hit with a bullet, buying a brand new card and reporting to the service provider that you need a new card activated, or paying to get your card "cleaned" then waiting until the next bullet gets you. As a hobby, I think it is interesting. As a way to get cheap TV, I'd say forget it. -- Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with subject of "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" toWear-Hard Mailing List Archive (searchable): http://wearables.blu.org
