Defconward

So, today is usually slated for a Guest Blog. I’m not doing that, though, because I’ll be gone for three blog days and will have those slated for Guest blogs. Of course, something could go wrong and they not update. If that’s the case I’m sorry.

Where am I going?

If you need to ask this you obviously haven’t been paying attention. I’m headed to DEFCON and will be gone from August 2nd (Tomorrow), until August 6th (Monday). There should be some interesting guest blogs, but I’m a little behind schedule so they might not all go off, but we’ll see.

Why don’t I blog while I’m there?

“It would be fair to describe the [defcon] network as “hostile”. It has been described as ‘the worlds most hostile network,’ but such descriptions are just attempts at flattery. It is recommended that if you want to connect to the DEFCON network pretend that you are sharing out your entire hard drive to 5000 hackers. You may want to bring a ‘clean’ computer that you don’t mind being infected/hacked/etc. It is considered very poor form to attempt to DoS the network; while the DEFCON staff may not do anything about such attempts it is reasonable to assume that ‘peer justice’ may be meted out. If you’re unhappy about the possible risks associated with connecting to DEFCON networks there are a couple of options: refrain from computer use for a few days or connect using another network elsewhere in Vegas (another hotel or something)”.

So. Sorry if today wasn’t all that exciting, but definitely wait in excitement for the next few days. There should be some amazing shit.
