Phone Losers of America is a collection of short stories which take
you on a twenty year journey of high-tech humor, culture jamming,
and criminal mischief. From remotely controlling the overhead
paging system of a large supermarket, to confusing the phone
company with various call forwarding stunts, this bizarre
collection of pranks will not only make you laugh, but will make
you question the security and sanity of common, everyday business
procedures. Learn how one illustrious member of the PLA crossed the
country on stolen credit cards, staying in the nicest hotels one
day and then sleeping on the streets of major cities the next, all
while amusing himself at the expense of others. Laugh as he turns a
radio morning show into his own interactive game, enrages users of
an online auction site, uses revenge tactics that cross the line,
systematically drives convenience store employees nuts so that he
can get a job, and confuses an entire neighborhood of cordless
phone users. The stories contained in this book are based on the
writings from the Phone Losers of America website which have been
featured in USA Today, the Boston Herald, 2600, on CNBC, CNN,
TechTV, and countless other websites, books, magazines, radio shows
and police reports.
This novel is a recollection of short stories that follows Seadog,
a misguided product of the cyberpunk revolution, as he wonders his
way as a ghost through the wireless world that surrounds us all.
Watch from behind the helm as he sails his ship into distant
previously unknown waters plundering our network resources and
looting our personal information.
