Is it still possible to phreak a phone by unscrewing

I tried unscrewing the mouth peice once, could not unscrew it. Bastard
would NOT budge.
You've figured out why it is no longer possible to phreak. The phone
companies passed a law that required phone manufacturers to screw the
mouthpiece on so tight that nobody could unscrew it. Therefore, phreaking
is no longer possible ;(
