'As long as you're entering illegally, that's breaking in.'
Not true.
"Breaking in" requires intent of a crime or vandalism to trespass. There was no criminal intent. The basis of fact establishes that.
And most phone rooms are easily accessible with no posted restrictions (such as "Authorized personnel only" or a keyed lock). After all, 90% of phone rooms are just supply closets.
So no, they didn't break in to anywhere.
