It's official. Defcon is cancelled this year. For real this time. But they'll be doing this: "Even though our in-person Las Vegas event is canceled, we will run DEF CON 28 Safe Mode August 7-9 (Friday through Sunday) with 101 orientation Thursday - all of it remote." https://t.co/2Cbs70QovY

Can a @defcon goon please call me like every 25 minutes during what would have been #hackersummercamp and yell at me to stop blocking the fire exits and to keep moving? https://t.co/q80cssIdyi pic.twitter.com/eBK7E36bmO

#DEFCON may be canceled IRL for the first time ever but the virtual event will still proceed — and I, for one, am looking forward to it ? https://t.co/OZ6Gd2Spf5

Wait... @defcon is cancelled?
— Fr. Robert R. Ballecer, SJ (@padresj) May 8, 2020
But it's cancelled every year... is this cancelled cancelled, or cancelled CANCELLED?
And if it's cancelled CANCELLED, is that really just a way to keep away the people who are no longer discouraged by it being cancelled?https://t.co/S107ReR9dJ

Welp. https://t.co/DflKv5jQE0. The team will still load events into #hackertracker, though. Let us know what is going on and we can add functionality for virtual AND in-person (we hope soon) conferences. @_advice_dog @shortxstack
