What The Hell Is OpenAMD? from Hackers On Planet Earth on Vimeo.

2600 Magazine presents The Next HOPE, the eighth conference in the 16 year history of the Hackers On Planet Earth series. It will happen at the Hotel Pennsylvania in the middle of New York City from July 16-18, 2010, and will be the largest creative technology conference on the U.S. East Coast.

Conference attendees will see first hand where human tracking by commercial and government interests may be headed when they are offered an active RFID conference badge. Participation in RFID tracking is completely voluntary. If you wish, you can request an electronics-free “unpopulated” badge at registration, or simply remove the battery from your “populated” RFID badge at any time. There will be a limited number of the full-featured badges, so register early to be guaranteed to receive one.

Kenshoto has officially released their call-for-ninjas regading Defcon 16′s Capture The Flag (CTF) competition.

When questioned about this shocking revelation, Dr. Shoto responded palm-to-forehead, “What you say?!” He further elaborated, “The recent challenges with cyber-infrastructure and the threat of cyber-attack from cyber-terrorists plotting devious cyber-crimes has been troublesome. So let’s all get together and cyber-bitchslap each other in all out cyber-warfare!”
