I asked this a while ago, but my mail system has some problems and I don't know what the responses were, if any....
Is there any way to make a phone call anonymously? Caller ID can be blocked somewhat with one of those *## numbers dialed before the call is made. Is there a way to route a call through a series of phone-type remailer systems? This would allow one to make a call that would be as hard to trace as anonymous mail.
Yes, there are many ways to make nearly imposible to trace phone calls. Unfortunately, all that I know of involve stealing telephone service / toll fraud of some sort or another (in other words, if you are evading the trace functions for increased privacy, you are also evading the billing mechanisms...) For more info I suggest you moniter alt.2600, #hack, and #phreak. Also look into buying some back issues of 2600 magazine as well as retrieving all the back issues of things like PHRACK magazine and CuD.
