DEF CON Uncon report

Fun was had.

We got 200 rayhunters into the wild, and 95 Meshtastic badges.

EFF was so kind and supportive. Their people on the ground and tech teams, not only are supportive of h.town, but they were even supporting in ways I can’t say yet.

We raised a LOT of money for the EFF, and even staged a take over of an event.

This year’s event really allowed the “from many, one” ethos shine. We had cDc, R00t, 2600, and L0pht representation in our village, some new townies in the pipe too.

Hackers.town was born in an attempt to resurrect the good parts of the early hacking scene. A tiny LED in the darkness of the void.

And we bring them together.

There were a bunch of talks by Townies…

About pirate boxes.

About applying business resiliency tactics to personal resiliency.

About Tech Reclaimers, who plan to free NEO from the matrix.

About Veilid.

About saving the world.

We raised funds for Veilid too, had a tiny hackathon around it.

Lastly.

Hackers.town has friends everywhere.

@thegibson@masto.hackers.town “I have friends everywhere” would make a great theme for andor/h.t themed version of the Meshtastic badge
