Computer Crime Cop Reviews Hacker Movie War Games
Inspired by reviews by Watch It For Days - reviews of Columbo television series.
Welcome to my review of the hacker movie WarGames. I can provide a unique perspective on the movie because as a computer crime cop in the 80s I chased after hackers committing crimes.
I was a sergeant in the theft division of the Austin police department where I investigated all computer crimes reported. This was a new thing for the department, I had free reign as nobody understood what I was doing. It was just a bunch of good old boy cops around me. I attended Austin community college and took every computer science class I could so that I would be better at the investigations. Texas had no computer crime laws at the time and eventually I worked with senators and state representatives to craft chapter 33 of the Texas Penal Code entitled computer crimes. Here’s a couple of the cases that I got into.
First I set up a sting bulletin board, one of the first in the nation. A bulletin board was simply an electronic message board, a rudimentary email and file exchange system that people could dial into with their home computers and a modem. Think America Online. People could post public and private messages, play online text based games, and exchange software programs - usually pirated games. I got an IBM PC computer and a phone line at the police department and set up my bulletin board called the Underground Tunnel. But how could I get away with an obvious police dept phone number? The University of Texas at Austin police gave me a dorm room phone number and arranged for that number to be call forward to my number the so I could pretend to be a UT student. The purpose was to just monitor what was going on in the bulletin board world, and to see if anybody would offer stolen software or credit card numbers or anything like that.
Calling long distance was expensive. A big problem therefore was with war dialers because they were attacking Western Union’s Metrophone long distance calling card service. Armed with valid calling cards the hackers could attack computers in California while others stood by pay phones in housing projects and sold long distance call time to immigrants wanting to call home - usually Mexico & Latin America. I took an Apple ][ computer onto the Texas House of Representatives floor and demonstrated a war dialer hacking Western Union (with their consent) in support of the proposed computer crime bill.
The data center case mentioned was with Continuum, a company that leased life insurance programs to sales companies using actuarial software called Life 70. Thomas Groom, their data center manager stole the software and their client database. He bought a used IBM mainframe computer and negotiated an office space lease with all bills paid. The computer used more electricity than the cost of the monthly lease. His plan was to steal clients away by offering services at a steep discount. But the first client he approached ratted him out. I searched his business address and his apt, both of which were cleaned out. But in his apartment he left a single piece of paper in a trash can under the kitchen sink. It was a storage unit contract! I hit that and found all the stolen software and charged him with felony theft.

A better look at the catch Butch Johnson made against Denver! Going frame by frame Butch caught the ball and held it firmly between both hands on about the 1 yard line. His momentum carried him over the plane of the goal where it became a touchdown. Nothing on the ground after crossing the plane applies, as it normally would have had it occurred in the field not involving the plane of the goal ...

Even to us non-Cowboys fans the shift has always had an amazing look. In unison the players crouch to rest their forearm on their thigh, stand up, then put their hand on the ground. It's a great nod to a *then* great franchise. Before the salary cap there were five offensive lineman who made over a million dollars a year and four of them played for the Cowboys. America's Team is one of the all-time best marketing phrases.
Cowboys were going to win this game regardless, but this was a bad call
He was a genius best coach ever
I'll away be America's Team Nation fan Of my favorite beloved ❤️ Dallas Cowboys Franchise. Amen Thank you, our legendary Coach Tom Landry, for so many great years. We love you, Coach Tom Landry 💙 A true man of God,and blessings to y'all brothers and sisters. Amen
Not only all of this. Tom Landry was also a B-17 pilot in WWII. He was a great man!!
Not complete at last. No TD
2:03 damn how was that NOT offsides?
Catch. TD.
Yo, Tom Landry's Centennial is this year! (September 11)
Sports hated the Cowboys… but respected the way they played an excellent brand of football on offense and defense. Coach Landry is THAT DUDE!!!
I love how the Cowboys still do this when they are in victory formation running out the clock. Such a cool tradition and a nod back to an awesome coach. I wish more teams did stuff like this. The NFL has such a great legacy.
When I was a teen & a young man, Tom Landry was SOOOOO cool! Landry Shift Flex Defense Shotgun He was innovative!
What an idiot of a Ref who immediately called that a TD catch. He must've had some big money on Dallas to be that stupid. LOL!
NOT a catch by today's standard! (Don't know what the rules were in 1977-78.)
I watched it live, it was an amazing CATCH.
That was never a catch. The ref was an idiot.
First time I have ever seen this. This was not a catch
Yes, it was a catch. He crossed the plane with the ball.
One of the biggest coach. Many battles against Lombardi and a few less to Belichick as a former defensive coach in NY
By rule, this was not a catch in 1977. The 1977 rule stated the following: "A Player is in possession when he has held the ball long enough to give him such control as to enable him to perform any act common to the game." And later: "A Catch is made when a player inbounds secures possession of a pass, kick or fumble in flight." The requirement for two feet was addressed in an Approved Ruling. Please note that the player was not required to perform an act common to the game; he was required to hold the ball long enough to perform such act. The key words in the sentence are "long enough." The phrase "long enough ... to enable him to perform any act common to the game" was an expression of time. The expression of time has changed on several occasions since 1977, not always for the best. The 1977 two-feet requirement was interpreted to include any other body part that touched the ground. Johnson's elbow touched the ground, so he fulfilled the first two requirements for a catch: control of the ball and a body part on the ground. Did he hold the ball long enough? It's pure judgment. Most people don't think so.
They re wrong. He did.
Dez caught it!… I mean, Butch caught it.. barely.
No way that would have been a catch today...he didn't control the ball through the process.
You might be right But he invented the 4-3 defense, which is still used today.
Landry, Landry, Landry.....how many champioships?
Look at the history of their Salary cap. Tex was one of the cheapest owners in history and refused to give Landry the talent he needed. Landry was so loyal he stuck with the Cowboys through the whole process
If I have EVER denied that Landry was a great Coach, I really do apologize. But: Vince was better. This was a time BEFORE free agency. Vince won lots more. @@McCullyClassic
Is that a catch?
Yes!
Yes
Incomplete pass today. Should have been then too. Light rules back then.
Today's asinine rules are irrelevant. He had control of the ball when his elbow touched the ground, so it was a completed pass.
Today??? If he wore gloves like today, it's a touchdown!🎉
Couldn’t help but smile the whole time I was watching this.
Many memorable Sundays. Go to Mass. Watch the Cowboys. Watch Wonderful World of Disney. Eat together as a family
that was when the cowboys was America's team
Back in the day when I was a lineman playing junior college ball we would imitate the Landry shift during practice.
Wonder why it isn’t used today at all
Interesting even Pat summerall says he dropped it but ruled a touchdown. Close indeed
I'm surprised they wouldnt penalize the stand up go back down during this day and age as false start..it looked so smooth back in the day.
He never had control of the ball, the ball was moving the entire time, and he quickly dropped it. It wasn't a catch today, it wasn't a catch in 1977, and it wasn't a catch even in fantasy land, which is where this poster and some of the minions chiming in reside at.
Why can they do this now?
Beautiful intro
I wonder if the players ever got tired/bored of doing the shift. Seems like there are better ways to use energy on a football field.
Great video
Incomplete
Legendary.
Definitely not a TD
Back then it was. Rules changed. Back then you didn't have to make a "football move", and you didn't have to survive the ground.
how bout dem cowboys, haven’t won shit in decades
So why are you here?
Hating azz BOZO 🤡 Get off the Cowboys channel 🤬
they dont have Taylor swift
I loved this video. There's so much more footage of the landry shift now as the Cowboys have been dominant this season.
How Bout Dem Cowboys!!!
Absolutely amazing footage & analysis.Landry a defensive minded coach,that gave us the Shift, Shotgun formation &25 yrs of the coolest demeanor.Of course he always dressed for success. Rip Coach&Gil Brandt who was also an architect in the NFL
He invented the 4-3 defense that everyone uses.
Don’t know why they did that against the NFC East. Didn’t fool anyone.
Gee maybe you should've listened to the REAL doctor instead of praying to an imaginary friend. Imagine that, a cop/Christian who is an ignorant fuckup.
Blocked LB and Lineman from clearly seeing the final shift before the snap was the intent, but it became more of a solidarity thing.
I always thought it was to draw the defense off sides
@2:10 is my favorite play. Denver DE Brison Manor #66 jumps offsides thanks to _The Shift_ but then when he pursues the play downfield he gets a wicked cutdown.
Yeah I said it, Rodger staubach and Terry Bradshaw was two best quarterbacks of the 70s
I went to a convention where Bradshaw was a keynote speaker. He was absolutely hilarious. I found it ironic that he lived in Dallas at the time.
Giddy up Cowboys. Fan to the bone.
Very very good work on this video!!! I've never even heard of this movie before, so thank you for introducing it to me. I can definitely tell you worked hard on this video. It's wonderful you had some life experience to go along with the subject matter. I agree with your previous commenter that you should write a book. Your life seems to have had many wonderful experiences that most can only dream of. I am sorry to hear you are having to battle cancer but encouraged to know you believe in God and his word... Take care, my friend❤
You inspired me. The idea to zoom in on the zombie cheerleader sketching came from watching your excellent reviews, with your eagle eye for trivia in a scene. This took me a long time to edit. I've got bad tremors from a spinal injury; it's a miracle I managed to finish this. I am a devout follower of Jesus, so although I'm suffering, it will all be wonderful when I make that transition one day that we all have to make.

Thank you. I’ve been all over the world thanks to the job that got me the top secret security clearance. I’ve driven a Jaguar in London, eaten sushi in Tokyo, & petted a Koala in Sydney. I worked with Israelis and Palestinians in the West Bank designing security systems, drove a Suburban with a CNN crew in President Clinton’s motorcade, and met Elvis (although Elvis told me not to touch him!) I thought putting out something more upbeat than cancer would be a nice break.
WOW!! You should write a book!
