[tlug] 30th Chaos Communiction Congress in Hamburg, Germany: Recordings

[Jens Oliver John <lists@example.com>]

(Shameless advertisement)

In case you haven't already heard of the 30th Chaos Communication Congress [0],
a hacker's conference being held in Hamburg from the 27th-31st and having seen
this year on its first day around 8 thousand attendees from all over the world,
I'd like to make known that

    - all talks are being streamed in English (some being translated live from
      German) [1];
    - streamdumps of past talks are available [2] and
    - high-quality cut and encoded recordings of all talks will be online after
      a few days for download [3];
    - After most lectures there are Q&A sessions, in which you can also
      participate via IRC [4].

The detailed schedule is available at [5]. FOSS is always a major topic.

There are many superb talks this year, and I'd like to take the opportunity to
list a few of my favourites so far (I'm hopelessly behind with watching the
streams), with streamdumps already online [6]:

    Überwachen und Sprache (Surveillance and Language) [de], transl. [en]
        http://ccc.devsn.se/congress/2013/Fahrplan/events/5377.html
        Introduces advanced linguistic methods for politically motivated
        internet monitoring.

    An Introduction to Firmware Analysis [en]
        http://ccc.devsn.se/congress/2013/Fahrplan/events/5477.html

    Keine Anhaltspunkte für flächendeckende Überwachung [de], transl. [en]
        http://ccc.devsn.se/congress/2013/Fahrplan/events/5281.html
        How (mostly German) politicans abused language when "reacting" to the
        NSA surveillance incident and the Snowden relevations. A philology
        professor and a professor of Physics :-)

    Mobile network attack evolution [en]
        http://ccc.devsn.se/congress/2013/Fahrplan/events/5449.html
        My personal highlight so far. By the infamous duo Karsten Nohl and Luca
        Melette. Release of some very interesting analysis software.

    30C3 Keynote [en]
        http://ccc.devsn.se/congress/2013/Fahrplan/events/5622.html
        By Glenn Greenwald, with Frank Rieger.

    The Tor Network - We live in interesting times [en]
        http://ccc.devsn.se/congress/2013/Fahrplan/events/5423.html
        Jacob Applebaum and Roger Dingledine, developers with the Tor project,
        brief us on the Tor state of affairs.

The SD-HQ and SD-LQ live streams are very watchable for me here in Tokyo; maybe
there's one talk or two which are of interest to you.

Regards,
Jens.
