Both Defcon and Black Hat, originally scheduled for August, have cancelled in-person events, instead opting to host conferences online
and I, for one, am looking forward to it 😈 https://twitter.com/... Marc Rogers / @marcwrogers : DEF CON is officially cancelled. https://forum.defcon.org/... we will be putting on an online event instead. Details in the post. #DEFCON #DEFCONisCANCELLED @alethedenis : Can a @defcon goon please call me like every 25 minutes during what would have been #hackersummercamp and yell at me to stop blocking the fire exits and to keep moving? https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/... Lily Hay Newman / @lilyhnewman : defcon is, and I cannot emphasize this enough, canceled https://www.wired.com/... Fr. Robert R. Ballecer / @padresj : Wait... @defcon is cancelled? But it's cancelled every year... is this cancelled cancelled, or cancelled CANCELLED? And if it's cancelled CANCELLED, is that really just a way to keep away the people who are no longer discouraged by it being cancelled? https://forum.defcon.org/... Kim Zetter / @kimzetter : It's official. Defcon is cancelled this year. For real this time. But they'll be doing this: “Even though our in-person Las Vegas event is canceled, we will run DEF CON 28 Safe Mode August 7-9 (Friday through Sunday) with 101 orientation Thursday - all of it remote.” https://twitter.com/...
