Can you bribe a cable guy to give you free HBO etc?

$20 and a free set a kneepads go a long way.

 
I think my cable company is adverstising a free trial week of HBO this week. I gotta look at the schedule and see if there's anything good on. By good I mean lots of nudity...
 
my friend's parents gave $100 to their 11 year old kid to do it... It worked, but this was back in the days. I think technology has improved since then. Everyone I know that had illegal cable no longer has it.
 
It used to be with the old analog cable systems that they would use filters to block the premium channels and supposedly you could remove those filters to get these premium channels.
These days it's all digital though so either you pay or you don't get it.
 
Nowadays, they use this thing called digital. Instead of the cable box filtering out the channels, its all controlled at the source now.
