Abbreviation for Phone Losers of America. PLA was an underground zine that came out in late 1994 that dealt with phone phreaking, a bit of computer hacking, and getting stuff for free. PLA was the very first zine I read, and I enjoyed it so much it inspired me to look for other zines online. It is not published anymore.
