=== SS5 and DTMF ===

For a while, telephones used to speak a language called signaling system 5 which was made out of funky [[music]] called DTMF which does not stand for "down to [[True...|maybe]] [[fuck]]". If you learned to speak it, you could ask the telephone network to do nice things for you like dial long distance calls for free and it would do them for you because you asked so nicely and were very polite. Legendary children's-breakfast-cereal-mascot Captain Crunch liked this idea so much he made a whistle that you could use to talk to telephone network trunk switches. The telephone company didn't like that very much so they made the telephone speak a different language called signaling system 7.

It kinda didn't come up in the other sections but cellphones are kinda interesting. For a while, people have wanted to be able to make telephone calls on the go. It used to be really clunky and expensive but now it's a lot cheaper and easier. Cellphones became more and more widespread and started to replace landline phones after a bit. With the advent of smartphones made by companies such as [[Apple]], Blackberry, and [[Grape]],

this process was further accelerated. Nowadays, for many people, smartphones are the primary way they interact with the telephone network and the internet!

The tellular celephone network is made out of G and every once in a while they run out and have to add some more. That was chill for a while and people didn't really care until they got up to five of them and then people got a bit freaky with it and started setting cell towers on fire for some reason.
