The link works but "all images removed".

And it's not his thread.

That's a shame, I would have liked to have had a little gander at some in-exchange photos.

Maybe you'll get a chance to see them when they're used in evidence.

The 1911 Official Secrets Act makes the photographing of telephone exchanges and communication centres a punishable offence. I doubt if it's been repealed or superseded.

What has happened to the images?

BT's "security advisor" for Scotland & Newcastle got in touch with me, unsolicited, thanked me for bringing the insecure exchange to his attention but regretted that it had come to light in such a public manner.
I apologised to him and offered to remove the photographs from my website. He accepted this offer and so I removed the HTML code which automatically renders the photographs in the browser window. The result of this is that the photographs will no longer automatically appear when you click on the link in the post.

a punishable offence

My experiences as a customer with BT over the years have been quite a considerable punishment.
