hacking NJ: All your professionals are ours

[Subcommander Bob]

Wired.com pointed to
http://www.nytimes.com/2001/08/24/nyregion/24VOTE.html
which is about putting public records online.  This pointed to
http://www.state.nj.us/lps/ca/director.htm  which lists 'professionals'
that NJ tracks.

Heh, All their professionals are 0urs.

A few minutes using the HTML CIRCUMVENTION/CRACKING tool "Netscape"
and fnord "Emacs" and we've got a nice catalog.  Physicians,
architects, veterinarians, master plumbers, beauticians of NJ, your
info is toast.  The web page limits you to, e.g., 800 physicians per
surname search; yet a search for "S" surnames yields 6974 MDs.

How-to:

Go there, pick a profession, e.g., doctors at
http://www.state.nj.us/lps/ca/bme/docdir.htm

Save as local, and edit the HTML.

1. Find "POST".  Prefix http://www.state.nj.us to the relative CGI URL
earlier
in that line.

2. Find "OPTION".  Add a few zeroes to the number of hit results there.

Open the *local*, edited page in a browser.

Enter a letter, e.g., "s" and select the larger number of results to
return.

If you enter "." you get 59,192 matches.  All the licensed MDs in NJ.
