01:48.620 --> 01:50.540 I'm also the guy behind NinjaOS. 01:50.560 --> 01:52.340 It's a live OS based on Arch Linux. 01:52.340 --> 01:53.000 We'll get into that in a minute. 01:53.020 --> 01:54.400 We'll get into that in a minute. 01:55.680 --> 02:00.680 I'm an avid motorcycle enthusiast and I do much, much, much more. 02:00.680 --> 02:04.020 If you have any more questions about me, you can always ask me sometime on IRC. 02:04.020 --> 02:06.700 The answer may or may not be sarcastic. 02:07.040 --> 02:08.160 Next slide. 02:08.420 --> 02:09.300 Next slide. 02:09.300 --> 02:10.800 Next slide. 02:14.060 --> 02:15.840 There we go. 02:15.840 --> 02:18.520 So, yeah, I'm the third guy. 02:18.720 --> 02:21.600 I just do things around here, you know. 02:23.520 --> 02:26.460 I mean, I show up for a long time. 02:26.480 --> 02:35.060 I do document work. 02:35.060 --> 02:38.920 I designed our flyers and a few of our graphical assets. 02:39.620 --> 02:44.080 And, yeah, that's generally where I am around here. 02:44.080 --> 02:51.340 Oh, and by the way, the awesome bird art, by the way, for each of us is by a person on Twitter called Pockets. 02:51.340 --> 02:55.180 It's at underscore P-O-C-K-E-T-S-S. 02:55.260 --> 02:56.000 No relation. 02:56.000 --> 02:56.800 No relation. 02:56.800 --> 02:57.100 Yeah. 02:57.600 --> 02:58.220 All right. 02:58.220 --> 02:59.420 Advanced slide. 03:00.220 --> 03:02.940 As you know, we just like adopting pets here. 03:05.140 --> 03:06.180 I love this. 03:06.180 --> 03:07.280 This is like being on FTL. 03:07.280 --> 03:07.600 There we go. 03:07.840 --> 03:13.880 So, for all of you global people out there and even the United States, you're probably wondering, what is New Jersey and where are we? 03:13.880 --> 03:16.580 So, a couple of factors we're going to yell out. 03:16.700 --> 03:20.120 New Jersey is one of the 13 colonies that rebelled against the American Revolution. 03:20.120 --> 03:23.280 And , yes, we're located in that third world nation that's in the United States. 03:23.500 --> 03:25.680 We're the home to many firsts. 03:25.680 --> 03:29.740 We're also home to the Jersey Shore, both the show and the place, and the Sopranos. 03:33.000 --> 03:35.360 Last to grant slaves their freedom. 03:35.420 --> 03:38.420 We ourselves are located in Jersey City in Hudson County. 03:38.420 --> 03:45.200 So, for those who don't know where Hudson County is, if you look at the map on the screen, you should see friendly white families to the right of that. 03:45.200 --> 03:47.180 If it's colorblind, it's red. 03:47.180 --> 03:50.620 It says well-to-do conservatives, who I don't think are well-to-do anymore. 03:50.780 --> 03:53.960 Below that is hipsters and minorities. 03:53.960 --> 03:56.080 That's where Hudson County is. 03:56.180 --> 03:59.060 And , yeah, does anyone have any more comments about New Jersey? 04:00.160 --> 04:05.180 So, yeah, basically, I came from Long Island. 04:05.180 --> 04:06.680 I can't really say anything. 04:08.240 --> 04:12.260 Like, literally, if he's from Long Island, he wasn't able to speak until he physically got to New Jersey. 04:12.260 --> 04:13.100 Pretty much. 04:14.100 --> 04:16.060 Florida's People's Republic of New Jersey. 04:16.060 --> 04:18.380 I don't know what to say. 04:19.760 --> 04:21.720 So, next slide. 04:21.720 --> 04:22.600 Advance. 04:23.340 --> 04:24.260 Engage. 04:28.380 --> 04:36.140 So, we're not quite done with New Jersey, because, and trust me, we'll go by this really fast, because we want to get into some questions, hopefully, from the audience. 04:37.020 --> 04:44.740 Something a lot of people don't know about New Jersey is there's a lot of technological and just hacker AF stuff that's in our state. 04:44.740 --> 04:46.900 And we just thought we'd do a couple of highlights here. 04:46.900 --> 04:52.160 So, first of all, way back, depending if you like the man or how most of us do now, we hate the man. 04:52.300 --> 04:56.060 Edison's original labs were located in Moeno Park in West Orange. 04:56.060 --> 04:58.040 These are all places in New Jersey, by the way. 04:58.100 --> 05:02.680 They've been either converted into museums or moved to other states and been converted to museums. 05:02.680 --> 05:05.580 Because, you know, we're basically a New Jersey's a dumpster. 05:05.580 --> 05:07.420 You just pick stuff up and move them to other states. 05:07.420 --> 05:14.160 So, you can thank particularly those labs for things like electricity, movies, things like that were directly invented there. 05:14.900 --> 05:22.180 Then, a little bit later on, John von Neumann built what's known as the IAS machine, sometimes known as the von Neumann machine. 05:22.180 --> 05:25.400 You probably heard of a little guy known as Alan Turing. 05:25.400 --> 05:32.560 He's one of the people that conceptualized modern computing and also helped crack the Enigma machine along with the Polish Cypher Bureau. 05:32.560 --> 05:39.120 He had a concept for what a computer, a computational machine that could actually remember and store memory. 05:39.340 --> 05:42.860 And he's where we get the von Neumann architecture from. 05:42.860 --> 05:45.460 And Neumann... Neumann! 05:45.760 --> 05:46.280 Von... 05:46.280 --> 05:52.140 Yes, teamed up at the Institute of Advanced Studies in this cesspool that's known as Princeton, New Jersey. 05:52.140 --> 06:02.880 And defied... well, he stole basically $10 million, got yelled by the government, private industry, and everything else, and created the first machine that did functional stored state memory. 06:02.920 --> 06:05.560 So, it could actually remember stuff and recall things back. 06:05.560 --> 06:09.020 You say Princeton's a cesspool, but New Jersey's the cesspool. 06:09.780 --> 06:10.600 Well, no. 06:10.600 --> 06:13.620 Again, New Jersey is a pothole with potholes in it. 06:13.620 --> 06:14.280 It's great. 06:14.880 --> 06:23.900 And then, basically around 1940s, Bell Labs kind of got sick of New York City, and they decided to relocate with the family, like relocations in 1967 at Murray Hill. 06:23.900 --> 06:25.600 They actually opened up a ton of locations. 06:25.660 --> 06:29.440 Murray Hill is the current last resting place of Bell Labs. 06:29.440 --> 06:31.260 You can see the photo in the slide. 06:31.400 --> 06:33.860 And it's now known as Nokia Bell Labs. 06:33.860 --> 06:35.460 Nokia Bell Labs. 06:35.460 --> 06:37.100 For a time, it was Novell. 06:37.100 --> 06:38.800 For a time, it was Sko. 06:38.940 --> 06:40.300 Unix was invented there. 06:40.300 --> 06:44.860 Yeah , I was going to say, in 1969, Unix was invented right here in New Jersey. 06:44.860 --> 06:47.060 There was a lot of stuff invented at Bell Labs. 06:47.060 --> 06:50.280 The first working transistor solar panel. 06:50.280 --> 06:55.040 One of the first working CRT color displays was invented here in the state also. 06:55.040 --> 06:57.200 The C language Unix. 06:57.200 --> 06:59.760 We can't display video, but there's a hilarious... 06:59.760 --> 07:09.920 If you go into YouTube, search Bell Labs Unix, and I crap you not, there is a documentary that Bell Labs made called Unix Making Computers Easier to Use. 07:10.120 --> 07:12.060 So, that's that. 07:12.060 --> 07:13.120 We're almost done. 07:13.320 --> 07:18.520 I don't quite know, and I believe 201 was the first error code, and if it's not, it's the first public. 07:18.520 --> 07:21.700 Actually, 201 is the first error code. 07:21.700 --> 07:24.780 Because in the old North American numbering plan. 07:24.780 --> 07:26.580 Even if it wasn't, we're claiming that. 07:27.140 --> 07:32.220 This is the reason why we specifically saw rep 201 instead of 973 or anything else. 07:32.220 --> 07:36.160 In the old North American numbering plan, you can't use a number 1. 07:36.880 --> 07:44.100 The middle digit has to be a 0 or a 1, and the end digits can't be a 0 or a 1. 07:44.100 --> 07:47.840 201 is the lowest possible error code, and that's what New Jersey got as the first error code. 07:47.840 --> 07:48.940 We're number 1. 07:48.940 --> 07:55.260 And just to note, when he says middle digit, he means the number sequence of the phone number, not another common middle digit that's basically hello in New Jersey. 07:56.800 --> 07:58.220 Three last quick things. 07:58.220 --> 07:59.140 Number be a 1. 07:59.140 --> 07:59.540 Yes. 07:59.540 --> 08:04.480 At least it's not a number 2, which is our government. 08:04.500 --> 08:06.120 But a few more quick points. 08:06.500 --> 08:18.280 Way back, I believe it was 1990, the Secret Service actually set up a sting operation in Bergen County called Operation Cyber Snare, where they launched in Bergen County a BBS known as Celio 5-1. 08:18.280 --> 08:26.380 In 1995, I think the first main BBS arrest happened with 6 people from all over the place were indicted under hacker handles. 08:26.400 --> 08:29.520 If you remember, or hopefully try not to remember, Gio Hotz. 08:29.520 --> 08:32.020 He hacked the iOS. 08:32.020 --> 08:36.180 He's more famous for hacking the PlayStation 3 and then got sued over it. 08:36.180 --> 08:37.160 We did a panel about it. 08:37.160 --> 08:38.200 We're going to explain that later. 08:38.200 --> 08:40.400 He actually is from Hackensack, New Jersey. 08:40.540 --> 08:44.560 And finally, if you remember, we were supposed to have a thing this year called Defcon China. 08:44.560 --> 08:46.300 That got canceled real fast. 08:46.880 --> 08:49.640 We, you know, because Winnie the Pooh got canceled. 08:49.640 --> 08:55.260 But no, it's that, so the partnership with Defcon China is a company called Baidu. 08:55.260 --> 08:57.140 And basically, it's China's Google. 08:57.140 --> 09:14.280 And what a lot of people don't know about it is that Robin Li, that's his actual name, in China, all the back end for their entire system, including their main search engine, because they got the same start as Google being a search engine, was coded when he was working at IDD Information Services in New Jersey, 09:14.280 --> 09:15.640 which, if I remember correctly, is in Newark. 09:15.640 --> 09:16.700 Oh, wow. 09:16.700 --> 09:23.560 So , yeah, so half of all of China's infrastructure is from code made in New Jersey, so that's that. 09:23.580 --> 09:24.540 Joy. 09:24.600 --> 09:25.280 Speaking of which... 09:25.280 --> 09:26.800 That's why they call us the People's Republic. 09:26.800 --> 09:28.880 Yep, let's get into actual DC-201 stuff. 09:28.880 --> 09:30.000 Next slide, please. 09:30.000 --> 09:30.940 Kind sir. 09:31.380 --> 09:35.580 Kind person of nondescript gender, mineral, or vegetable. 09:35.900 --> 09:36.360 There we go. 09:36.360 --> 09:42.340 So, yeah, so, for those of you who don't know, there have been three previous attempts to make a DC-201 in the past. 09:42.340 --> 09:44.200 All of them miserably failed. 09:44.200 --> 09:49.140 The last one went from, like, 2011 and tapered off somewhere around 2013. 09:49.140 --> 09:52.640 You can use the Wayback Machine to find out as someone just goes through our slides. 09:53.400 --> 10:01.580 We don't know why, because that's actually one of the reasons why our Twitter's off, because they have the original DEF CON 201 account on Twitter. 10:01.580 --> 10:01.800 Yeah. 10:01.800 --> 10:06.320 And they moved to Georgia, which tells you a lot about them, and we haven't heard from them ever since. 10:06.320 --> 10:09.040 So we had to take DEF CON 201 NJ. 10:09.040 --> 10:09.460 Yep. 10:09.480 --> 10:15.980 And we don't know why their meetings fizzled out, but we can make a guess, because who actually wants to go to Paramus? 10:16.080 --> 10:17.660 Fucking Paramus. 10:18.080 --> 10:21.100 I guess there's something wrong with every part of this state. 10:22.560 --> 10:24.340 Not that I actually want to go to Paramus. 10:24.340 --> 10:25.200 Well, never mind. 10:25.200 --> 10:29.120 I mean, you've had experience trying to go to NYC... sorry, 2600 meetings in New Jersey. 10:29.120 --> 10:32.660 Yeah, I mean, it's like part of that state where it's hard to get through with public transportation. 10:32.700 --> 10:33.540 It's not really much there. 10:33.540 --> 10:35.400 It's just mostly, like, strip malls and kind of... 10:35.400 --> 10:38.000 It's not really accessible as far as, like, meeting places go. 10:38.000 --> 10:40.420 It wasn't really a good location to do, like, a group. 10:40.760 --> 10:46.640 So one of the reasons why I wanted to do this one was because I'm pretty sure SidePocket had the same... 10:46.640 --> 10:48.400 We both had, like, the same idea at the same time. 10:48.400 --> 10:53.300 It's that, like, you know, like, oh, there's a lot of hackers from New Jersey. 10:53.460 --> 10:56.500 There's a lot of people who I could always meet in either... what's it called? 10:56.820 --> 11:00.340 Basically all meet in New York City, but no one ever wanted to do anything in New Jersey. 11:00.340 --> 11:01.860 So, like, yeah, let's just meet in this state. 11:03.120 --> 11:07.640 We've also noticed, because that's why we did the history lesson, that New Jersey is hacker AF. 11:07.640 --> 11:10.880 But, like, our theory is that there's a lot of people who are too afraid to come out. 11:10.880 --> 11:14.920 And we don't blame them, because kind of like with some of the NYC 2600 groups and other organizations... 11:14.920 --> 11:25.040 Sorry, the 2600 groups and other organizations, that there's a very huge corporate slant in New Jersey that is very off-putting, kind of the way corporates are. 11:25.060 --> 11:27.220 So we decided, F it, do it live. 11:27.220 --> 11:28.640 Next slide, person. 11:32.540 --> 11:34.220 And then slide. 11:35.460 --> 11:36.980 I think we bored our audience there. 11:36.980 --> 11:37.620 There we go. 11:37.620 --> 11:42.140 So, yeah, and then basically, like, F it, let's make DEFCON 201 or DC201. 11:42.140 --> 11:45.080 So our first meeting was in March 17, 2017. 11:47.280 --> 11:48.360 That's a mouthful. 11:49.480 --> 11:54.660 We just were kind of like, hey, we'll find a place, meet up, we'll talk some stuff, maybe we'll do a workshop. 11:54.660 --> 11:57.360 Maybe, hopefully, we'll have someone to do some speaking. 11:57.460 --> 12:02.480 And then back in March of this year, we actually celebrated our third beer anniversary. 12:02.480 --> 12:06.220 So we're like the longest lasting out of the New Jersey groups as far as we know. 12:06.220 --> 12:09.560 We've had some really amazing stuff. 12:09.560 --> 12:19.880 I'm really happy that we have a diverse mix of not only representation in terms of, like, ethnicities, you know, sex, backgrounds, color, but also just different types of hackers. 12:19.880 --> 12:30.640 We've had people who love lockpicking, biohacking, reverse engineering, forensics, knitting, just all sorts of anyone with a STEM background. 12:30.640 --> 12:43.100 One thing that I'm going to hand to GI Jack a bit about is that I love, and this was his idea, was when you do become a member, and we can deal with that in the Q&A section, we do have our own NextCloud that's members only. 12:43.140 --> 12:44.240 Do you want to talk a bit about that? 12:44.380 --> 12:46.780 At this point, I almost don't want to talk about it. 12:47.500 --> 12:48.640 It's infrastructure. 12:48.640 --> 12:50.280 Okay, so it's infrastructure. 12:50.340 --> 12:52.020 NextCloud is a great piece of software. 12:52.460 --> 12:53.520 It's one of the last remaining... 12:53.520 --> 12:54.240 Asterix. 12:54.540 --> 12:56.380 No, what's it called? 12:56.380 --> 12:58.320 NextCloud is great until it doesn't work. 12:59.700 --> 13:02.080 We're actively looking for a good replacement. 13:02.080 --> 13:03.860 The Unix experience. 13:04.140 --> 13:08.360 It's basically the last piece of LAMP software that people actually use. 13:08.360 --> 13:09.840 That's right, PHP. 13:10.140 --> 13:21.220 Okay, so basically it's a combination of, it does calendars, contacts, basically it does groupware in the browser with a nice web interface with web dev, car dev, cal dev. 13:21.600 --> 13:27.320 It has a plug-in for email, it has a plug-in for maps, it has a lot of interesting plug-ins. 13:27.320 --> 13:34.380 It has a plug -in for LibreOffice online, so there's an HTML5 LibreOffice client, which runs the Docker container that it forwards information from. 13:34.380 --> 13:36.180 That will kill your computer after four gigs. 13:36.180 --> 13:36.640 Yeah. 13:37.640 --> 13:41.620 That sometimes actually works as well, like the rest of it. 13:41.820 --> 13:49.600 So when NextCloud is working, it's pretty cool because if you want to run your own cloud-hosted calendar with web dev, but it's still PHP. 13:49.660 --> 13:55.600 See, the way I like to describe it is it's like if it was all put together with dental amalgam. 13:55.600 --> 14:01.420 It's full of mercury, it tastes like shit, and generally is an unpleasant experience. 14:01.420 --> 14:01.700 Right. 14:01.700 --> 14:03.060 But it's very necessary. 14:03.060 --> 14:03.400 Right. 14:03.400 --> 14:09.320 If you want to mount a storage space, you can actually back-end this directly to an S3 bucket and look like unlimited storage, which is kind of cool. 14:09.320 --> 14:09.680 Yep. 14:09.680 --> 14:13.300 And speaking of that, we've met some truly amazing people. 14:13.300 --> 14:20.680 We're going to do shout-outs at the end, but we're really fortunate enough to have awesome speakers and people who do workshops, such as Liz Fong-Jones, Knight Owl, Mr. 14:20.760 --> 14:23.220 BlackCypher himself, and more. 14:23.220 --> 14:28.420 And speaking of that, we're going to talk a little bit about how we sort of set up DEF CON DC-201 here. 14:28.420 --> 14:30.840 So , advance to the next slide, if someone can do that. 14:36.280 --> 14:37.920 Someone advance to the next slide, please. 14:37.920 --> 14:39.100 Anyone that has blood? 14:39.100 --> 14:39.700 There we go. 14:39.700 --> 14:50.940 So, speaking of transportation and bad infrastructure, we want to let people know why you should actually travel to New Jersey and why DC-601 should stop its bitching. 14:51.800 --> 15:01.320 We want to make sure... one of our priorities when we were looking for locations was to make sure where we would be as accessible to everyone as much as possible, including the location itself. 15:01.440 --> 15:04.880 And that it's on the first floor, because we've had that problem in the past. 15:04.880 --> 15:07.160 Yes, we'll get into that in a little bit. 15:07.520 --> 15:11.840 So, we want to make sure people who have any physical or mental disabilities should be able to enter in. 15:11.840 --> 15:16.920 We always put... if there's any sort of thing that might mentally harm, they call them trigger warnings. 15:16.920 --> 15:20.060 We always try to make sure to get those out there, because trust me, it's New Jersey. 15:20.060 --> 15:21.680 We want an inclusive place. 15:21.680 --> 15:26.740 We want to be open to as many people as possible, because hackers are an extremely diverse community. 15:26.740 --> 15:31.780 Yes, we want to make an inclusive space in a state that is like the opposite end of inclusive. 15:32.740 --> 15:43.580 One of the reasons why I kind of formed this is because we always used to bitch that everything in New Jersey kind of sucked. 15:44.100 --> 15:46.620 So, we did a... we were like, why does it suck? 15:46.620 --> 15:49.100 It says there's nothing cool, so let's do something cool. 15:49.100 --> 15:50.840 And try to, like, turn the state around. 15:50.840 --> 15:57.080 And try not to do, like, also, like, some of the mistakes we've seen in other, like, meetings in the past that we're not going to name names. 15:57.720 --> 16:03.860 And we also want to make sure that, you know, that we have, which Sarah saw actually did a bunch of, is extensive documentation. 16:03.860 --> 16:08.640 So, if you do have to take NJ Transit, the, like, elusive nightmare, you can actually get here. 16:08.640 --> 16:14.460 Yeah, at our current venue, I have listed at least four different ways to get there just by public transportation. 16:14.460 --> 16:19.900 And if you're driving and parking, I wouldn't recommend it in Jersey City. 16:19.900 --> 16:22.780 But I even have a parking space that you can park at. 16:22.780 --> 16:28.400 It's, like, $2 to park, and then you get a bus ticket and head on to DC-201. 16:28.400 --> 16:28.980 Yep. 16:29.020 --> 16:33.320 So, speaking of that, just to hammer in the point, next slide, please, volunteer. 16:33.340 --> 16:34.580 Advanced slide. 16:35.180 --> 16:40.420 So, to kind of stick in that point, because I'm going to talk while the slide, hopefully, transitions here. 16:41.960 --> 16:48.940 The main reason why I want DC-610 to stop bitching is that no one wants to go to Pennsylvania. 16:49.080 --> 16:51.560 Our argument here is... Do you see this picture on the screen? 16:51.560 --> 16:53.380 We love you, hip-hop. 16:53.380 --> 16:55.160 No, it's not hip-hop. 16:55.840 --> 16:58.700 It's Docker Eye. 16:59.400 --> 17:01.420 Yeah, so, question to everyone in the audience. 17:01.420 --> 17:03.000 You see that picture right there? 17:03.020 --> 17:07.100 Is that a lie due to all of, like, the racial injustice and, like, COVID and stuff? 17:07.100 --> 17:08.760 Or is that the Eagles winning? 17:08.760 --> 17:10.620 We rest our case. 17:10.620 --> 17:12.280 Next slide, please, advanced. 17:16.160 --> 17:17.540 Advanced slide. 17:17.660 --> 17:18.480 It's getting there. 17:18.480 --> 17:21.380 It's kind of like... this is like a telephone game. 17:21.620 --> 17:29.660 So, as we said, you know, we're just another group out of the many DEF CON groups that are across the nation, around the world. 17:29.660 --> 17:43.040 And we have the same frustrations and pitfalls that everyone else does, including probably the most difficult one that we still, to some degree, have struggles with, even though we really have no complaints about this, which is finding a venue. 17:43.400 --> 17:44.580 You know, getting a space. 17:44.580 --> 17:53.720 And, you know, we agree with DEF CON groups that this needs to be an open space that doesn't have, like, a door charge fee, or that you can negotiate with the people there in order to meet around and get it accessible. 17:54.680 --> 18:00.060 I don't know if we're going to name names here, but we've gone through two other locations before our current one. 18:00.060 --> 18:11.160 Our first venue was, like, what you would think of when you're, like, okay, let's have, like, a DEF CON groups meeting where it was a hacker space and it had giant power tools and, you know, a bunch of stuff there. 18:11.160 --> 18:15.200 The problem was is there was a lot of drama from that hacker space. 18:15.200 --> 18:19.240 It wasn't exactly in a good corner of Hoboken, either. 18:19.240 --> 18:21.240 Yeah, you can probably make some guesses here. 18:21.240 --> 18:25.700 I mean, Hoboken's exactly a good corner in the first place, but... 18:25.700 --> 18:32.920 And the other thing about it, which was our nail in the coffin, is we'd have people show up with stuff, and then their stuff would go missing during the meeting. 18:32.920 --> 18:36.960 Yeah, that was kind of a big, uh, no thanks kind of... 18:36.960 --> 18:41.180 And it wasn't any of our members, either, because we were very vigorous about that. 18:41.180 --> 18:50.540 So we decided to move again, and our next venue was more physically accessible, and the owner liked us, but we kind of got the vibe that the employees didn't. 18:50.540 --> 18:56.460 There was a lot of head-butt clashing with, like, culture and timing and stuff, and so that wasn't working out, either. 18:56.460 --> 19:03.660 Yeah, so, like, the second venue was nice because it was right on the subway, right on the PATH train. 19:03.660 --> 19:19.840 The problem was that we, uh, while we were pretty much in with the owner of the place, and they wanted to have cool hacker stuff going on there, the employees were kind of working against us. 19:19.840 --> 19:23.160 We'd noticed things were, like, messed up a little bit. 19:23.160 --> 19:33.780 And what was the final nail in the coffin was, like, when some of the employees just up and left without, like, cleaning up the restaurant. 19:33.780 --> 19:39.760 And it got to be a problem enough that we decided that we weren't going to work with them on that. 19:39.760 --> 19:47.980 Well, basically, to elaborate more, um, we got a complaint that, like, we somehow, like, messed up the restaurant, even though we took pictures that night. 19:47.980 --> 19:52.460 It was completely clean, and we didn't go anywhere, because they gave us the keys to lock it. 19:52.460 --> 19:53.760 That's how much the owner trusted us. 19:53.760 --> 19:57.960 And so our theory is that an employee messed up, and they were like, oh, you know, no one likes hackers. 19:57.960 --> 20:00.360 We'll just blame it on the group that's there. 20:00.360 --> 20:01.360 Yeah , easy scapegoat, you know. 20:01.360 --> 20:04.340 So, just like Goldilocks, next slide, please. 20:04.700 --> 20:09.480 You know, we had to find a new location, and we eventually, we did. 20:09.480 --> 20:11.260 And I think we're pretty happy with it. 20:11.260 --> 20:12.820 They're called Subculture. 20:12.960 --> 20:20.220 They're located on 260, if you add an extra, that's 2600 Newark Avenue in downtown Jersey City, New Jersey. 20:20.220 --> 20:30.180 It's about five blocks away from the current PATH train, and there's a lot of other avenues in order to get there, as everyone beeps in unison behind us, because it's Jersey City. 20:30.560 --> 20:32.060 They're a sandwich shop. 20:32.240 --> 20:35.060 They have really affordable food with a lot of different options. 20:35.060 --> 20:41.900 They have a huge, like, 60-plus inch projection screen that we do all of our, like, presentations and talks on, kind of similar to what we have virtually here. 20:42.100 --> 20:46.180 And they have multiple TVs, power plugs for all of, like, the devices and stuff we'll bring in. 20:46.180 --> 20:48.060 The people who run it are really cool. 20:48.060 --> 20:52.060 They, like us, came out really in support of Black Lives Matter and a bunch of other things in the city. 20:52.060 --> 20:54.700 And we've had great, truly a great working relationship with them. 20:54.700 --> 20:55.660 That's not any BS. 20:55.660 --> 20:57.080 Like, we're really shocked by that. 20:57.080 --> 21:05.320 And, well, I think, personally, it's really cool in the back, what Serious Sales Times helps with, and so has Jack, is they have a whole Raspberry Pi video game set up. 21:05.320 --> 21:06.260 They have, like, five games. 21:06.260 --> 21:06.980 Retro games, yeah. 21:06.980 --> 21:08.380 Just emulated retro games. 21:08.380 --> 21:09.340 We didn't make that. 21:09.340 --> 21:10.400 That was already there. 21:10.400 --> 21:11.060 Yeah. 21:11.060 --> 21:15.800 And I have to say something, just a note on the affordable food bit. 21:16.840 --> 21:21.700 It's not, like, McDonald's cheap, but it is good for what you get. 21:21.700 --> 21:37.000 Which is a big thing, considering a lot of the places that people meet afterwards for, like, meetings in New York City and around Jersey City, they're often, like, dim, dinky bars in the middle of, like, midtown Manhattan, where a simple burger is, like, 21:37.000 --> 21:38.020 $35. 21:38.400 --> 21:40.440 I don't fly with that. 21:40.440 --> 21:41.100 We're hackers. 21:41.100 --> 21:42.080 We're broke. 21:42.080 --> 21:42.220 Yeah . 21:42.220 --> 21:44.460 We're not 500 years old. 21:44.460 --> 21:45.660 We're hackers in New Jersey. 21:45.660 --> 21:46.180 Thank you. 21:46.180 --> 21:48.800 We're hackers in the middle of New Jersey. 21:48.800 --> 21:49.500 Yeah. 21:49.500 --> 21:51.000 Do you have any comments you want to add on that? 21:51.000 --> 21:51.640 Next slide? 21:51.640 --> 21:52.100 Okay. 21:52.160 --> 21:53.880 Yeah, so the food's good. 21:54.280 --> 21:54.800 Yeah. 21:54.800 --> 21:56.720 It's just a warning. 21:56.720 --> 21:58.520 It is the hipster district, so... 21:58.520 --> 21:59.100 I mean... 21:59.100 --> 22:03.080 Well, I would say the district is, but, like, the venue isn't. 22:03.080 --> 22:04.080 They're very down-to-earth. 22:04.080 --> 22:04.520 Yeah. 22:04.520 --> 22:05.060 Yeah. 22:05.060 --> 22:08.960 I mean, they attract hipsters just by proximity, I guess, but... 22:08.960 --> 22:12.260 Yeah , plus we're out of Hoboken, and none of us ever want to go. 22:12.260 --> 22:16.200 So, next slide, so we can get rid of the watch of Hoboken out of our mouths. 22:16.280 --> 22:16.980 Yeah. 22:17.760 --> 22:20.640 So, we're going to talk about how we sort of... 22:20.640 --> 22:22.460 Okay, now that we have the venue, what do we do next? 22:22.460 --> 22:23.800 So, the big one is get the word out. 22:23.800 --> 22:27.880 There's a classic saying that I hate, which is, if you build a bigger mousetrap, they will come. 22:27.880 --> 22:29.420 That is an effing lie. 22:30.220 --> 22:41.880 As a lot of you guys know who make hardware and software projects, you often probably put stuff on GitHub, and there's kind of that meme where you can get, like, 5,000 followers on Twitter, but you get someone to actually follow your GitHub, and that's like an Olympic event. 22:41.880 --> 22:43.700 Or worse, contribute to it. 22:43.700 --> 22:43.900 Yeah. 22:43.900 --> 22:45.000 Make one pull request. 22:45.000 --> 22:45.560 Yes. 22:45.560 --> 22:49.260 So, the thing about it is, like, you know, you have to get the word out there. 22:49.260 --> 22:54.820 You have to do that thing that hackers have a hard time doing a lot of times, which is the socials. 22:54.820 --> 22:55.640 You have to... 22:55.640 --> 23:00.200 Basically, if you're a hacker group, you're a social group for anti-social people. 23:00.300 --> 23:04.040 So, the way we had to get the word out is we had to do extensive social media presence. 23:04.040 --> 23:10.060 I will say that we are all lucky where, whether for good or for worse, when I was on Twitter, I had a following. 23:10.060 --> 23:14.200 GI Jack, I would say, has followings or zombies or minions or something. 23:14.200 --> 23:18.480 I got some in our collection of weirdos and bots. 23:18.480 --> 23:18.680 Yeah . 23:18.960 --> 23:24.460 And Sarasal's known for his work, and a lot of other people who are on stream right now are known for that. 23:24.460 --> 23:34.520 So, we did have the advantage of a lot of people migrating over to our social media stuff, but that didn't, you know, excuse that we had to make a meetup.com, and now we currently pay for it. 23:34.520 --> 23:53.120 Like, even if you have a world-class team of hackers, like, in every corner of hackerdom, you're not going to be, you know, outright getting followers to your DEF CON group unless you actually put in the work to make it visible. 23:53.120 --> 24:01.680 And part of that is, you know, even when you have all your social media stuff together, you need to have something that, you know, as they said in the Big Lebowski, ties the room together. 24:01.680 --> 24:04.500 So, we've gone through multiple versions of the website. 24:04.500 --> 24:08.640 The first version is something... the first and third version was stuff I had to spin up just to have it. 24:08.640 --> 24:24.480 The second version, all I'll say about it, is when the person designing the website, when you ask them to put the link to the email on the main page, and they say, Oh, I didn't think... I don't think that's like a main feature or a priority feature, that person's no longer in charge of the website anymore. 24:24.480 --> 24:26.800 So, instead, we gave it to SoraSell, and everything's magic. 24:26.860 --> 24:41.920 Yeah, no, the one thing I have to say is visual, like, synchronicity, you know, make sure that everything is readable, accessible, everything's put together, all your information is in the site, on the page. 24:41.920 --> 24:46.980 The front page has the most important information, including contact information. 24:46.980 --> 24:50.260 That's something our previous website editor lacked. 24:50.260 --> 24:57.420 And a big one is that we also make sure that, like, there's nothing tracking, there's no plug-ins, it doesn't use any scripting. 24:57.420 --> 25:03.360 No JavaScript, no bots, no trackers, no one-pixel dots. 25:03.360 --> 25:17.140 And, uh, yeah, the worst thing I'll do is a few CSS animations, tops, and that's plain CSS, and if your browser has those turned off or disabled, usually for accessibility reasons, it'll just gracefully fall back. 25:17.140 --> 25:22.760 One of the quick features we added to Lookit is we're a big fan of KISS, stop looking at the bandit, also keep it simple, stupid. 25:22.800 --> 25:25.300 You did speak for yourself about the bandit. 25:26.020 --> 25:29.460 But, uh, well, you know, New Jersey parking lot people. 25:29.460 --> 25:31.020 I'm speaking as a state. 25:31.020 --> 25:37.780 And then the big one here is we also tried to do a balance of popular platforms versus ethical platforms. 25:37.780 --> 25:42.740 What I mean by that is, like, we have a Facebook, we have a Twitter, because everyone's on there. 25:42.860 --> 25:50.440 But that doesn't mean you can't have, for example, a Mastodon or something in the Fediverse or an independent blog or Onion that we run. 25:50.440 --> 25:52.260 We do have an Onion landing page. 25:52.260 --> 26:03.040 And that's honestly something that I admire about this group and something that a lot of more free-culture-minded, open-source-minded groups could probably... 26:03.040 --> 26:04.320 It's on the top of your arm! 26:04.320 --> 26:05.180 Uh , yeah. 26:06.100 --> 26:06.600 Gesundheit. 26:06.600 --> 26:07.340 It's stuck in my throat. 26:07.340 --> 26:10.260 Anyway, it's something they could learn about. 26:10.260 --> 26:12.620 Go to the platforms that people are on. 26:12.620 --> 26:14.100 Go where the people are. 26:14.100 --> 26:17.080 I mean, even if it's actually Facebook. 26:17.080 --> 26:22.300 You know, it's run by a lizard king who lies to Congress through his teeth. 26:22.300 --> 26:24.280 Doesn't matter, the people are there. 26:24.840 --> 26:25.400 His teeth? 26:25.400 --> 26:26.820 Oh, maybe he doesn't. 26:27.040 --> 26:28.040 His gills. 26:28.040 --> 26:29.400 Yes , but real quick, yeah. 26:29.500 --> 26:33.540 And that's a whole... because we're going to go to the next thing in a bit. 26:34.220 --> 26:36.260 That's where... I just lost my train of thought real quick. 26:36.260 --> 26:37.760 Do-do-do-do-do-do-do. 26:37.760 --> 26:38.400 Oh, okay. 26:38.400 --> 26:39.700 So we're going to go to the next train of thought there. 26:39.700 --> 26:43.920 But yeah, and also if you're on a platform, you know, we talk about our Mastodon and stuff. 26:43.920 --> 26:45.160 We let people know about that. 26:45.160 --> 26:48.640 So that's right where we move people over to potentially better stuff. 26:48.680 --> 26:52.440 And then the last thing, which is big, is that we also are very local. 26:52.440 --> 26:58.700 So despite, you know, hackers and digital stuff, before COVID, and we'll get to that in a second, we do make... 26:58.700 --> 27:00.800 Circel design flyers, we print them out. 27:00.800 --> 27:04.860 I go everywhere and hang them up so that, you know, whether you're at a library or a bar or something... 27:04.860 --> 27:09.320 Yeah, we basically paint the town black and white with all these flyers, you know. 27:11.340 --> 27:17.520 I designed the flyers to be instantly noticeable and readable from a distance. 27:17.520 --> 27:23.920 So you'd see them hanging on the side of a bulletin board from the street. 27:23.920 --> 27:26.860 And you'd see, oh, that's a DEF CON 201 flyer. 27:26.860 --> 27:29.320 Or you'd think, oh, that's an interesting flyer. 27:29.320 --> 27:30.800 I want to see what it is. 27:30.920 --> 27:35.920 Because it just has just the right balance of information and white space. 27:36.100 --> 27:38.640 So I'm going to do the next slide and then hand this off to G.I. 27:38.640 --> 27:39.000 Jackson. 27:39.000 --> 27:40.240 Next slide, please. 27:43.300 --> 27:45.880 We are poking you with the pointer to change this. 27:45.880 --> 27:46.500 There we go. 27:46.500 --> 27:49.920 Do you want to read what we're about? 27:49.920 --> 27:50.600 We are an open technology... 27:50.600 --> 27:51.540 Hashtag goals. 27:51.620 --> 27:52.900 Hashtag goals. 27:52.900 --> 27:55.120 We are an open technology group. 27:55.780 --> 27:57.340 We welcome all skill. 27:57.340 --> 28:05.840 We welcome, regardless of background and skill and in person, doing instead of talking, helping each other learn and grow, and give back to the community. 28:05.840 --> 28:08.600 So it's just basically we encourage everyone to show up. 28:08.660 --> 28:12.140 We're not like...

33:38.980 --> 33:40.660 But there's actually quite a bit. 33:40.660 --> 33:41.960 A lot of it's draining your health. 33:41.960 --> 33:43.860 It's an exercise in frustration. 33:43.940 --> 34:03.940 Right, but, um, so basically I was there to talk about digital hygiene and how your, uh, the things you put online can actually affect your health based on, you know, the effects it has on your mental well-being, your social well-being, your emotional well-being and your spiritual well-being. 34:03.940 --> 34:16.560 So we pretty much packaged all that together and put a bunch of advice sheets out to basically teach people on how to be more aware of things like that. 34:16.560 --> 34:26.820 And that's a big thing because we, uh, because that's what she said, but no, is that we love DEF CON and we like hacker conventions and gatherings, but we also, again, want to make sure we reach people. 34:26.820 --> 34:35.200 So we have to step outside of our comfort zone and try other venues and topics that you would never normally see hacker stuff, and that's how you get really interesting people. 34:35.200 --> 34:38.880 So like hack things, because being doxxed is not healthy. 34:38.920 --> 34:42.740 Nope, and neither is, uh, trying to program and rust. 34:43.020 --> 34:54.440 And then, uh, we were at the hack, speaking of hack conventions, we were at this amazing one called Hackers Next Door by the Tech Learning Collective back in December, which was basically kind of like a more extreme anarchist version of Hope for Two Days. 34:54.440 --> 34:55.520 It was really fun. 34:55.520 --> 34:56.380 Jack, are you okay?

37:17.400 --> 37:26.660 We use a service called Restream.io, which allows us to send to one RPM broadcast, and it sends those signals out to multiple different streams. 37:26.660 --> 37:31.060 We're currently on Twitch, DLive, and YouTube, RIP Mixer, LOL, Microsoft. 37:31.940 --> 37:34.660 Because none of us want to go to Facebook gaming. 37:34.660 --> 37:36.880 We're not gaming or Facebook. 37:36.940 --> 37:39.560 So, that's how we broadcast this stuff out. 37:39.560 --> 37:44.540 We also, which I'm currently working on, archiving our content on YouTube, the inner archive, our own... 37:44.540 --> 37:49.040 A cool instance of PeerTube, and that should say DTube. 37:49.040 --> 37:52.080 I accidentally put DLive again because, again, pebcac. 37:52.480 --> 37:59.720 And we've increased our social media footprint to the point where we were sick and tired of just using these streams only for once a month. 37:59.720 --> 38:05.580 So, instead, we were like, hey, let's become our own TV channel and just host the stuff that we've been itching to teach. 38:05.580 --> 38:10.540 So, as you can see in the picture here, which I'm going to get into, I have my own show called Masters of Unlocking. 38:10.540 --> 38:18.000 I also have another show called Crypto Barons, which is teaching actual technology on cryptocurrency, not like snake oil stuff and market bull crap. 38:18.000 --> 38:20.120 You can go to Hoboken if you want that stuff. 38:20.320 --> 38:23.680 GI Jack has a show about Arch Linux and video games, right? 38:23.680 --> 38:24.280 Yes. 38:24.640 --> 38:28.920 I have a show called Arch File, where I play video games on Arch Linux. 38:28.920 --> 38:34.160 And I show more of the technical stuff of how you actually get everything running on Arch Linux. 38:34.160 --> 38:37.100 A little bit of hacking, not much. 38:37.180 --> 38:38.200 Some light stuff. 38:38.200 --> 38:40.300 I show a few tools. 38:40.900 --> 38:48.800 Recently, he decided that Doom, Ultimate Doom on Ultra Nightmare mode was too easy. 38:48.800 --> 38:54.120 So, he did the actual hard mode you could do on Doom and unboxed and configured a Pine Phone. 38:55.480 --> 38:58.720 Yeah, I was trying not to... I don't want to talk about that. 38:58.720 --> 39:00.340 I was trying to avoid talking about that. 39:00.660 --> 39:02.120 That's the trigger warning there. 39:02.120 --> 39:03.160 You can see the episode. 39:03.160 --> 39:04.000 It's archived. 39:04.160 --> 39:08.420 There's a guy called NCommander who also does a bi-weekly show called Control Hack. 39:09.880 --> 39:11.080 Hack NCommander. 39:12.880 --> 39:15.240 He's pulling his hair out just thinking about the Pine Phone. 39:16.820 --> 39:19.420 I still want to try the Pine Phone. 39:19.760 --> 39:20.800 That's what she said. 39:20.800 --> 39:22.700 But real quick, and then at one point... 39:22.700 --> 39:24.480 At one point... Here you go. 39:24.480 --> 39:25.420 Happy Birthday. 39:27.160 --> 39:33.660 And what we're saying here is that we also made, which you can find on our blog, godefcon21.org, click news. 39:33.660 --> 39:43.740 We made a blog about what hackers could do during COVID-19, including running folding at home, which Jack blew two GPUs on to run our folding at home. 39:43.740 --> 39:46.600 I unfortunately forgot our folding at home team number. 39:46.600 --> 39:47.720 Does anyone know it offhand? 39:47.720 --> 39:49.000 I'm an idiot. 39:49.000 --> 39:49.860 But while I'm talking about it... 39:49.860 --> 39:56.620 And we also teamed up with Thug Crowd and EFF to do privacy and security streams during the Black Lives Matter protests. 39:56.620 --> 40:02.860 And we've attended... I won't say who, but we've attended our local Black Lives Matter protests in Jersey City. 40:02.860 --> 40:04.420 It was real fun. 40:04.460 --> 40:06.900 Next slide, please. 40:07.580 --> 40:08.540 We're near the end here. 40:08.540 --> 40:09.560 Don't worry, guys. 40:10.220 --> 40:11.720 Right at the end of the tunnel. 40:11.720 --> 40:13.920 So, we want to quickly go into all... 40:13.920 --> 40:18.880 We have three of us here as we're looking at the Pine phone like cavemen discovering fire for the first time. 40:20.780 --> 40:25.120 What was that Amazon phone so long ago they made? 40:25.740 --> 40:27.080 Fire OS or something? 40:27.080 --> 40:27.580 Yeah. 40:27.780 --> 40:31.820 So, we wanted to go into each what some of our specialties are. 40:31.820 --> 40:32.620 Just the three of us here. 40:32.620 --> 40:34.360 We have a lot of amazing members, but just while we're here. 40:34.360 --> 40:35.600 So, I'm going to go first. 40:36.140 --> 40:38.060 Hi, it is me, SidePocket. 40:38.060 --> 40:43.380 I've been friends with people at the Open Organization of Lockpickers for many, many years. 40:43.380 --> 40:46.560 One of my mentors is TheNightOwl, who I absolutely love. 40:46.560 --> 40:50.520 You can check him out on Twitter at N-I-T-E-0-W-L. 40:50.680 --> 40:57.120 And basically, three years ago, I showed up to Toole, New Jersey. 40:57.280 --> 40:58.980 And they have their own meetings. 40:58.980 --> 41:02.060 You can actually... Toole's doing a whole workshop all DEF CON. 41:02.060 --> 41:03.340 I believe they have their own live stream. 41:03.340 --> 41:05.720 I think it's T-O-O-O-L live. 41:05.720 --> 41:07.460 That's Toole with three O's on Twitch. 41:09.600 --> 41:11.120 And we... what do you call it? 41:11.120 --> 41:13.140 So, I went there and I learned how to pick locks. 41:13.380 --> 41:13.660 And that's... 41:15.600 --> 41:15.980 ... 41:22.420 --> 41:34.460 But yeah, so basically, there were some issues where we tried to get a certain lockpicker who is now no longer invited to anything because he's a massive hacker fail to show up to Toole. 41:34.460 --> 41:34.740 ... 41:40.300 --> 41:45.460 I started going to meetings both in New York and New Jersey with the same training kit because they needed the resources. 41:45.500 --> 41:49.460 And then after losing my mind with COVID, I decided to make my own show called Master of Unlocking. 41:49.460 --> 41:52.460 The picture that you see there, there's even more stuff added to it. 41:52.460 --> 41:54.920 So, it's even bigger now, which is what all women like to hear. 41:54.920 --> 41:55.680 And some men. 41:55.680 --> 41:57.160 I do appreciate them too. 41:57.620 --> 41:58.560 Pansexuals in the house. 41:59.900 --> 42:01.100 So, yeah. 42:01.100 --> 42:02.120 So, we keep adding stuff. 42:02.120 --> 42:05.660 I actually just recently finished a whole tubular lock set... 42:06.720 --> 42:07.240 ... 42:07.240 --> 42:07.620 ... 42:07.620 --> 42:08.580 ... 42:08.580 --> 42:09.760 ... 42:09.760 --> 42:10.160 ... 42:10.160 --> 42:10.460 ... 42:11.300 --> 42:12.100 ... 42:12.100 --> 42:12.840 ... 42:12.840 --> 42:13.580 ... 42:13.580 --> 42:14.360 ... 42:14.360 --> 42:14.600 ... 42:16.000 --> 42:16.800 ... 42:16.800 --> 42:17.080 ... 42:17.080 --> 42:19.060 It's going to be two cases. 42:19.100 --> 42:22.500 Actually, if you guys could hold the mic for half a second. 42:22.500 --> 42:24.400 I actually want to do this real quick. 42:24.400 --> 42:25.680 All right. 42:25.680 --> 42:26.940 Just do me a favor with the pipe on. 42:26.940 --> 42:27.200 ... 42:31.080 --> 42:32.340 That's the kick! 42:32.880 --> 42:37.000 That's how heavy lock sporting gets because, as a guy named Hunter S. 42:37.000 --> 42:44.280 Thompson says, when you start a serious lock sport collection, you tend to lose count on where it's going. 42:44.280 --> 42:45.660 So, that's what kind of I do. 42:45.660 --> 42:50.900 If you can do the next slide, now we are going to get into some truly hacked stuff Arch Linux represent. 42:53.680 --> 42:56.200 Yes, here is my project. 42:56.720 --> 42:58.680 Here is this project, NinjaOS. 42:58.680 --> 43:00.920 It's a live OS. 43:00.940 --> 43:03.660 You can see the website is NinjaOS.org 43:07.800 --> 43:10.360 We are the future. 43:12.000 --> 43:13.440 What's it called? 43:16.920 --> 43:19.520 It's a mostly inclusive desktop. 43:19.620 --> 43:22.660 That should be it's tagline. 43:24.240 --> 43:30.460 It's got security tools, it's got privacy tools, it's got media tools, it's got recovery tools. 43:30.460 --> 43:33.700 In case you need to recover a hard disk, it's got test disk. 43:34.100 --> 43:35.420 X4 undelete. 43:35.420 --> 43:44.380 And all the usual little hacker tools for restoring or recovering data. 43:44.380 --> 43:47.860 So what you are saying is whoever uses NinjaOS has a giant tool. 43:48.640 --> 43:51.680 Whoever uses NinjaOS has a giant tool. 43:52.560 --> 43:56.060 It mostly has things like Xarchiver. 43:56.060 --> 43:58.320 It supports all the archive formats. 44:00.460 --> 44:04.580 It has a word processor, it has a calculator, it has a numeric, it has a spreadsheet. 44:04.940 --> 44:06.880 Most common file types, it will open. 44:07.180 --> 44:08.760 It's like a live OS. 44:10.880 --> 44:13.420 It boots, it doesn't remember anything. 44:13.420 --> 44:15.560 It resets itself every time it restarts. 44:19.300 --> 44:22.140 It's not trackable. 44:25.300 --> 44:27.900 I thought we had because the guy was rambling. 44:30.460 --> 44:33.820 We did this really fast, so I hope you have a sandwich taken away. 44:34.160 --> 44:38.820 Basically, I do a bunch of things. 44:38.820 --> 44:39.920 I'm making a video game. 44:39.920 --> 44:41.920 I'm designing a Linux operating system. 44:41.920 --> 44:45.240 I'm working on a port of Linux and other operating systems. 44:46.820 --> 44:56.400 I design and develop a community around 8-bit music for the Nintendo. 44:56.400 --> 45:11.220 In addition to that, I also am working on a couple of programming languages, a web browser, a deduplicated file storage backend for retrievable file objects. 45:11.220 --> 45:14.420 Things like ROMs and things like that can be deduplicated. 45:14.420 --> 45:17.380 He's literally his own GNU server, except it actually works. 45:17.380 --> 45:19.320 Probably other things, too. 45:19.320 --> 45:25.420 If you're interested in any of this, get in touch with me at Twitter or whatever, at Cyrusil. 45:26.400 --> 45:28.680 Next slide, please, because we're actually at the end here. 45:28.680 --> 45:31.400 So, quick future plans for DEFCON 201. 45:31.540 --> 45:39.060 We currently have submitted, again, outside of our comfort zone, to New York Comic Con in Exotica, which is this porno convention that happens in Edison, New Jersey. 45:39.060 --> 45:44.140 We're going to be trying to talk about sex workers' rights and SESTA-FOSTA, so cross your fingers we get accepted. 45:44.140 --> 45:56.180 We hope to see you all at many conventions next year, including DEFCON 29, Hope 2020, RubyCon, The Returns, DerbyCon, Resurrex, Cats and Dogs Living Together, Mass Hysteria. 45:56.580 --> 46:01.280 We're also trying to organize with the city, which got delayed due to COVID, Privacy and Security Week. 46:01.280 --> 46:06.800 That's citywide, so in the way they have a giant art festival citywide, we want to do a citywide thing for privacy and security. 46:07.000 --> 46:13.860 Again, we're reaching outside of our comfort zone, so you can see us at many conventions and places that you normally would not see hackers, including us, which we encourage everyone to do. 46:13.860 --> 46:25.300 And very long-term, we're linking up with some really awesome people throughout the state to try to make what we call B-Sides Turnpike, or a first-ever truly real, non-corporate, all-hacker-made hacker con. 46:25.300 --> 46:37.380 We also want to shout out there that we hate being the only New Jersey group right now, so if you want to make something, even if we're 8 million miles away, reach out to us, we will help you, especially with promotion. 46:37.380 --> 46:45.860 Also, if anyone's interested in a DEFCON group in Suffolk County, Long Island, I might be able to help you set up for DEFCON 631. 46:46.100 --> 46:53.060 So, get in touch with me, and I have a couple of venues in mind, and a meeting structure for that. 46:53.060 --> 46:54.500 So, next slide, please. 46:54.500 --> 46:58.280 This is a slide where normally we take questions, but I'll quickly tell you where to contact us. 46:58.280 --> 47:05.240 You can find us on the DEFCON Discord, on the DEFCON group Discord, we are on Twitter and Instagram and stuff like that. 47:05.240 --> 47:11.100 You can go to our website, DEFCON201, and you can go to our email at info at DEFCON201.org. 47:11.100 --> 47:12.100 Next slide, please. 47:12.100 --> 47:13.300 Final slide. 47:14.520 --> 47:18.900 So, thank you all for going through this talk with us here. 47:18.900 --> 47:21.000 Again, our website is DEFCON201.org. 47:21.000 --> 47:23.100 You can find us on Twitter at DEFCON201NJ. 47:23.100 --> 47:25.060 Here comes the giant hook to yank us away.

BSI Lab, Gonzo, Black Cipher, Inoculant, Squirtle, Head Hacker, Night Owl, Johnny X, MissLogic, SaintMyNinja, Nexus6, and many, many others, including Jason Street and every other DEFCON group who put this together. 47:44.680 --> 47:47.040 HackerPlanet, Dirty Jersey represent. 47:47.040 --> 47:48.760 I'm getting a drink, F you all. 47:48.760 --> 47:49.320 You'll love it. 47:49.320 --> 47:51.580 Also, I'm the one with the payphone there. 47:52.400 --> 47:53.820 Get off the mic, let's get out of here. 47:53.820 --> 47:55.340 Yeah, out of here. 47:57.620 --> 48:00.060 All right, we will be murdering trivia. 48:00.280 --> 48:02.160 Thank you everyone for having us. 48:07.530 --> 48:08.970 All right. 48:09.230 --> 48:14.530 Sorry, we're running a little late with the next presentation.

coming through. 48:30.680 --> 48:31.160 Okay, cool. 48:31.160 --> 48:31.640 Awesome.
