Power On! Lasst uns gemeinsam an diesem magischen Ort ankommen und alles vorbereiten, um die nächsten vier Tage in einer fröhlich-kreativen, fantastischen Wunderwelt zu verbringen und Kraft zu tanken.

While the extreme right is on the rise in many countries and climate change is unrolling, a promising future seems to be written: According to Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and some other “tech bros” it is to leave the dying planet to go to space. With the help of something called “A(G)I”. But what kind of future is the one that is promised? And what is the connection between power cycles of tech company owners and people who's believes can be called fascist? As we moved power through data in the hands of very view, it is important to examine what ideas these view have in their heads. This talk will explore the roots of today's tech fascism and its love for tech. From the early thoughts and movements in the US and Europe to Futurism and the Holocaust, organised with Hollerith punching cards. It will dive into the its blooming relationship with cybernetics, and take a look in the future the “tech bros” want to lure us in.

Typography is the art of arranging type to make written language legible, readable, and appealing when displayed. However, for the neophyte, typography is mostly apprehended as the juxtaposition of characters displayed on the screen while for the expert, typography means typeface, scripts, unicode, glyphs, ascender, descender, tracking, hinting, kerning, shaping, weigth, slant, etc. Typography is actually much more than the mere rendering of glyphs and involves many different concepts. If glyph rendering is an important part of the rendering pipeline, it is nonetheless important to have a basic understanding of typography or there’s a known risk at rendering garbage on screen, as it has been seen many times in games, software and operating systems.

The Great Firewall of China (GFW) is one of, if not arguably the most advanced Internet censorship systems in the world. Because repressive governments generally do not simply publish their censorship rules, the task of determining exactly what is and isn’t allowed falls upon the censorship measurement community, who run experiments over censored networks. In this talk, we’ll discuss two ways censorship measurement has evolved from passive experimentation to active attacks against the Great Firewall.

(NO RECORDING) OpenAutoLab, an open source machine, that is capable of processing contemporary color and black-and-white films for analogue photography, is being presented here. It made its first public appearance at 37C3 and was already seen there in action, but had no organized talk or proper presentation. Now it is better documented, waits to be built by more people and to be further developed by the community. This talk is about motivation behind developing OpenAutoLab and about the technical decisions made during it. It is argued that any dedicated film photographer is able to get one built.

Vor einem Jahr haben wir auf dem Kongress die Baustelle unseres Adenauer SRP+ präsentiert. Jetzt ist er fertig - 1 Jahr im Betrieb - und es gibt alles mögliche an Anekdoten aus dem Jahr. Außerdem alles zu noch geheimen, neuesten ZPS Aktion.

Despite how it's often portrayed in blogs, scientific articles, or corporate test planning, fuzz testing isn't a magic bug printer; just saying "we fuzz our code" says nothing about how _effectively_ it was tested. Yet, how fuzzers and programs interact is deeply mythologised and poorly misunderstood, even by seasoned professionals. This talk analyses a number of recent works and case studies that reveal the relationship between fuzzers, their inputs, and programs to explain _how_ fuzzers work.

Like 39C3, the last CCC camp (2023) and congress (38C3) have seen volunteer-driven deployments of legacy ISDN and POTS networks using a mixture of actual legacy telephon tech and custom open source software. This talk explains how this is achieved, and why this work plays an important role in preserving parts of our digital communications heritage.

Building electronics has never been easier, cheaper, or more accessible than the last few years. It's also becoming a precious skill in a world where commercially made electronics are the latest victim of enshittification and vibe coding. And yet, while removing technical and financial barriers to building things, we've not come as far as we should have in removing social barriers. The electronics and engineering industry and the cultures around them are hostile to newcomers and self-taught practitioners, for no good reason at all. I've been teaching advanced electronics manufacturing skills to absolute beginners for a decade now, and they've consistently succeeded at acquiring them. I'm here to tell you why it's not as hard as it seems, how to get into it, and why more people who think they can't should try.

Die Legalisierung des Online-Glücksspiels in Deutschland im Jahr 2021 und die zunehmende Normalisierung von Glücksspiel und Sportwetten in den Medien haben ein Umfeld geschaffen, in welchem Glücksspielprodukte leichter zugänglich und gesellschaftlich stärker akzeptiert sind als je zuvor. Diese weit verbreitete Exposition birgt erhebliche Risiken für vulnerable Personen, insbesondere da die Grenzen zwischen Spielen und Glücksspiel zunehmend verwischen. Seit einiger Zeit ist beispielsweise ein deutlicher Anstieg von Spielen zu beobachten, die Glücksspiel-ähnliche Items wie Loot-Boxen beinhalten. Komplexe Designmerkmale in elektronischen Glücksspielprodukten, z.B. Glücksspielautomaten und Online-Slots, sind gezielt darauf ausgerichtet, Individuen zu verlängerten Spielsitzungen zu motivieren, um den Umsatz zu maximieren.

This project transforms a classic rotary phone into a mobile device. Previous talks have analyzed various aspects of analogue phone technology, such as rotary pulse detection or ringing voltage generation. Now this project helps you get rid of the cable: it equips the classic German FeTAp 611 with battery power and a flyback SMPS based ringing voltage generator - but still maintains the classical look and feel. The talk demonstrates the journey of bridging analog and digital worlds, explaining how careful design connects a vintage phone to today’s mobile environment - in a way that will make your grandparents happy.

Reports of GNSS interference in the Baltic Sea have become almost routine — airplanes losing GPS, ships drifting off course, and timing systems failing. But what happens when a group of engineers decides to build a navigation system that simply *doesn’t care* about the jammer? Since 2017, we’ve been developing **R-Mode**, a terrestrial navigation system that uses existing radio beacons and maritime infrastructure to provide independent positioning — no satellites needed. In this talk, we’ll share our journey from an obscure research project that “nobody needs” to a system now seen as crucial for resilience and sovereignty. Expect technical insights, field stories from ships in the Baltic, and reflections on what it means when a civilian backup system suddenly attracts military interest.

Despite how widely used the ESP32 is, its Bluetooth stack remains closed source. Let’s dive into the low-level workings of a proprietary Bluetooth peripheral. Whether you are interested in reverse engineering, Bluetooth security, or just enjoy poking at undocumented hardware, this talk may inspire you to dig deeper.

Ihr macht eine Veranstaltung für viele Menschen? Dann haben viele Menschen auch viel Hunger. Jetzt wird euch gezeigt wie man für viele (mehr als 75) Menschen Essen zubereitet. Es braucht nur etwas Vorbereitung und Motivation!

Did you ever wonder where all the drugs, which you can get at a pharmacy, come from? Who makes them, and how? Well, there is no easy answer, because the process of drug discovery and development is a very complex, expensive, and challenging journey, riddled with many risks and failures. This holds true for all types of drugs, from a simple pill to an mRNA vaccine or a gene therapy. Today, scientists support this process with a variety of AI applications, cutting-edge technologies, automation, and a huge amount of data. But can the race for new medicines and cures succeed only through more technology, or do we need to rethink the entire process? Let’s take a look at how the drug discovery and development process has worked so far, and how this entire process is changing – for better or worse.

Zur Überraschung Vieler sind Juristen Wissenschaftler, die nach wissenschaftlichen Maßstäben arbeiten sollten und ihre Schriftsätze und Urteile auch nach stringenten wissenschaftlichen Kriterien gestalten und untereinander diskutieren sollten. Doch nur in einigen Rechtsgebieten funktioniert dies. Wie jede Wissenschaft ist auch die Rechtswissenschaft nur so gut wie das ihr zugrundeliegende Quellenmaterial – in diesem Fall sind das meist Urteile. Empirische Untersuchungen über diese Daten sind nur möglich, wenn sie der Forschung auch zur Verfügung stehen. Doch wissenschaftliche Arbeit im juristischen Feld ist aktuell nicht wirklich möglich, da die wenigsten Urteile veröffentlicht werden, da sich die Gerichte meist vor der dadurch anfallenden Arbeit scheuen. Wir betrachten, warum dies Grundsätze der Rechtsstaatlichkeit infrage stellt und warum Player aus der Wirtschaft mehr über deutsche Rechtsprechung wissen, als unsere Gerichte – und wie sie das zu Geld machen.

While trying to apply fault injection to the AMD Platform Security Processor with unusual (self-imposed) requirements/restrictions, it were software bugs which stopped initial glitching attempts. Once discovered, the software bug was used as an entry to explore the target, which in turn lead to uncovering (and exploiting) more and more bugs, ending up in EL3 of the most secure core on the chip. This talk is about the story of trying to glitch the AMD Platform Security Processor, then accidentally discovering several bugs and getting a good look inside the target, before returning to trying to hammer it with novel physical strategies.

From the EU’s “Chat Control” to the UK’s age verification, there is a growing legislative momentum across jurisdictions to regulate the Internet in the name of protecting children. The monstrosity of child sexual abuse looms large in shaping how policymakers, advocates, and the public understand the problem area of and propose solutions for detecting, reporting, and removing harmful/illegal content. Children’s safety and adults’ privacy are thus pitted against each other, deadlocked into an impasse. As technologists deeply concerned with safety and privacy, where do we go from here?

Zwei Jahre nach dem ersten KIM-Vortrag auf dem 37C3: Die gezeigten Schwachstellen wurden inzwischen geschlossen. Weiterhin können mit dem aktuellen KIM 1.5+ nun große Dateien bis 500 MB übertragen werden, das Signaturhandling wurde für die Nutzenden vereinfacht, indem die Detailinformationen der Signatur nicht mehr einsehbar sind. Aber ist das System jetzt sicher oder gibt es neue Probleme?

Wer heutzutage eine Wohnung sucht, kommt kaum noch darum herum, sich einen Account bei Immoscout24 & Co. zu erstellen. Diese „Platform Real Estate“ sind eine besondere Art der „Walled Gardens“, die ihr Geschäftsmodell auf die sich immer weiter verschärfende Wohnungskrise ausgerichtet haben. Und das ist äußerst profitabel für die Besitzer dieser Strukturen der Daseinsvorsorge: Im September 2025 stieg Scout24 in den DAX auf und reiht sich damit in Unternehmen wie BMW, Rheinmetall und SAP ein.

The Deutschlandticket was the flagship transport policy of the last government, rolled out in an impressive timescale for a political project; but this speed came with a cost - a system ripe for fraud at an industrial scale. German public transport is famously decentralised, with thousands of individual companies involved in ticketing and operations. Unifying all of these under one national, secure, system has proven a challenge too far for politicians. The end result: losses in the hundreds of millions of Euros, compensated to the transport companies from state and federal budgets to keep the system afloat, and nobody willing to take responsibility. This talk will cover the political, policy, and technical mistakes that lead to this mess; how we can learn from these mistakes; and what we can do to ensure the Deutschlandticket has a viable future.

In August 2024, Raspberry Pi released their newest MCU: The RP2350. Alongside the chip, they also released the RP2350 Hacking Challenge: A public call to break the secure boot implementation of the RP2350. This challenge concluded in January 2025 and led to five exciting attacks discovered by different individuals. In this talk, we will provide a technical deep dive in the RP2350 security architecture and highlight the different attacks. Afterwards, we talk about two of the breaks in detail---each of them found by one of the speakers. In particular, we first discuss how fault injection can force an unverified vector boot, completely bypassing secure boot. Then, we showcase how double glitches enable direct readout of sensitive secrets stored in the one-time programmable memory of the RP2350.

Großen Herausforderungen im Gesundheitswesen soll mittels Technik und Eigenverantwortung begegnet werden. Die Hoffnung: „KI“ und Digitalisierung machen das System effizienter; Selbstoptimierung und mehr Eigenverantwortung halten die Menschen länger gesund. Der Vortrag analysiert aktuelle Diskurse rund um Digitalisierung und Gesundheit, und fragt kritisch, wie diese Entwicklung ohnehin bestehende soziale Ungleichheiten verschärfen könnte. Am Ende bleibt die Frage: Wie könnten tragfähige Lösungen fürs Gesundheitssystem aussehen?

Neben dem Congress gibt es noch viele andere Chaos-Events, die über das ganze Jahr verteilt stattfinden. Das Easterhegg, die GPN und die MRMCD kennen vermutlich die meisten Chaos-Wesen. Aber was ist eigentlich mit den ganzen kleineren Veranstaltungen?

Might contain zerodays. https://gpg.fail/ From secure communications to software updates: PGP implementations such as *GnuPG* ubiquitously relied on to provide cryptographic assurances. Many applications from secure communications to software updates fundamentally rely on these utilities. Since these have been developed for decades, one might expect mature codebases, a multitude of code audit reports, and extensive continuous testing. When looking into various PGP-related codebases for some personal use cases, we found these expectations not met, and discovered multiple vulnerabilities in cryptographic utilities, namely in *GnuPG*, *Sequoia PGP*, *age*, and *minisign*. The vulnerabilities have implementation bugs at their core, for example in parsing code, rather than bugs in the mathematics of the cryptography itself.

Seit Anfang 2024 dürfen Ausländerbehörden Smartphones von ausreisepflichtigen Menschen nicht nur durchsuchen, sondern gleich ganz behalten – „bis zur Ausreise“. Was als geringfügige Änderung im Aufenthaltsgesetz daherkommt, erweist sich als massiver Eingriff in Grundrechte: Menschen verlieren nicht nur die Kontrolle über ihre Daten, sondern auch ihr wichtigstes Kommunikationsmittel – auf unbestimmte Zeit. Hier hört ihr, welche absurden Blüten das treibt. Von Bayern bis NRW haben Bundesländer inzwischen eigene IT-forensische Tools für ihre Behörden angeschafft, um auf den Geräten nach “Indizien” für die Herkunft zu suchen. Sie setzen Methoden ein, wie wir sie sonst aus Ermittlungsverfahren oder von Geheimdiensten kennen – um die Geräte von Menschen zu durchsuchen, die nichts verbrochen haben.

A 599€ wheelchair remote that sends a handful of Bluetooth commands. A 99€ app feature that does exactly what the 599€ hardware does. A speed upgrade from 6 to 8.5 km/h locked behind a 99€ paywall - because apparently catching the bus is a premium feature. Welcome to the wonderful world of DRM in assistive devices, where already expensive basic mobility costs extra and comes with in-app purchases! And because hackers gonna hack, this just could not be left alone.

FreeBSD’s jail mechanism promises strong isolation—but how strong is it really? In this talk, we explore what it takes to escape a compromised FreeBSD jail by auditing the kernel’s attack surface, identifying dozens of vulnerabilities across exposed subsystems, and developing practical proof-of-concept exploits. We’ll share our findings, demo some real escapes, and discuss what they reveal about the challenges of maintaining robust OS isolation.

Marc-Uwe Kling liest neues vom Känguru vor.

Wenn die Regierung sich nicht mehr an das eigene Recht gebunden fühlt, markiert das nicht nur einen politischen Spurwechsel, sondern die Auffahrt auf den Highway to Trumpism. Zeit die Notbremse zu ziehen! Normalerweise trifft es in solchen Situationen immer zuerst diejenigen, die sich am wenigsten wehren können. Doch was passiert, wenn genau diese Menschen mit juristischen Werkzeugen bewaffnet werden, um zurückzuschlagen? Anhand von über 100 Klagen afghanischer Schutzsuchender zeigen wir, wie Ministerien das Bundesaufnahmeprogramm sabotieren, Gerichte sie zurückpfeifen – und die Zivilgesellschaft zum letzten Schutzwall des Rechtsstaats wird. Und wir verraten, warum sich Beamte im BAMF vielleicht lieber krankmelden sollten und welche anderen Möglichkeiten sie haben, um nicht straffällig zu werden.

What power structures are inherent to the field of computer-generated art? In the year 1965, so 60 years ago, the first three exhibitions of art created with the help of computers took place - in part independently of each other. We want to present the interesting aspects of developments since then and discuss them with Frieder Nake, one of the people who exhibited in those very beginnings and followed those developments with a critical attitude.

Lager, Duldung, Bezahlkarte, Essensscheine – Criminalization, Radicalization, Reality for Many People in East Germany This talk sheds light on how these terms shape everyday life. We dive into an existence marked by uncertainty, isolation, and psychological strain, both in anonymous big cities and rural areas of East Germany. We ask: What does “solidarity” really mean in this context?

Seit jetzt schon vier Jahren droht aus der EU die Chatkontrolle. In Deutschland ist das Thema nach den Protesten im Oktober aktueller denn je - und sogar Jens Spahn und Rainer Wendt sind plötzlich gegen diese Form der Überwachung. In diesem Vortrag schauen wir zurück und erklären was, vor allem im Hintergrund, passiert ist. Wir nehmen die Position der Bundesregierung genau unter die Lupe und werfen einen Blick auf die Schritte, die auf EU-Ebene vor uns liegen.

With PTP 1588, AES67, and SMPTE 2110, we can transmit synchronous audio and video with sub-millisecond latency over the asynchronous medium Ethernet. But how do you make hundreds of devices agree on the exact same nanosecond on a medium that was never meant to care about time? Precision Time Protocol (IEEE 1588) tries to do just that. It's the invisible backbone of realtime media standards like AES67 and SMPTE 2110, proprietary technologies such as Dante, and even critical systems powering high-frequency trading, cellular networks, and electric grids.

This talk reveals our in-depth vulnerability research on the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) and its implications for BitLocker, Windows’ cornerstone for data protection. We will walk through the research methodology, uncover new 0-day vulnerabilities, and showcase full-chain exploitations that enabled us to bypass BitLocker and extract all the protected data in several different ways. This talk goes beyond theory - as each vulnerability will be accompanied by a demo video showcasing the complete exploitation chain. To conclude the talk, we will share Microsoft’s key takeaways from this research and outline our approach to hardening WinRE and BitLocker.

Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) based on ARM TrustZone form the backbone of modern Android devices' security architecture. The word "Trusted" in this context means that **you**, as in "the owner of the device", don't get to execute code in this execution environment. Even when you unlock the bootloader and Magisk-root your device, only vendor-signed code will be accepted by the TEE. This unfortunate setup limits third-party security research to the observation of input/output behavior and static manual reverse engineering of TEE components. In this talk, we take you with us on our journey to regain power over the highest privilege level on Xiaomi devices. Specifically, we are targeting the Xiaomi Redmi 11s and will walk through the steps necessary to escalate our privileges from a rooted user space (N-EL0) to the highest privilege level in the Secure World (S-EL3).

Almost everyone has a household appliance at home, whether it's a washing machine, dishwasher, or dryer. Despite their ubiquity, little is publicly documented about how these devices actually work or how their internal components communicate. This talk takes a closer look at proprietary bus systems, hidden diagnostic interfaces, and approaches to cloud-less integration of appliances from two well-known manufacturers into modern home automation systems.

Auf TikTok und Instagram boomen esoterische Inhalte. Neben offensichtlichen Falschinformationen zu körperlicher und psychischer Gesundheit geht damit eine Gefahr einher, die oftmals unterschätzt wird. Denn Teile der Esoterik-Szene schaffen nicht erst seit den verschwörungsideologischen Corona-Protesten eine sehr effektive Radikalisierungspipeline für antidemokratische oder sogar rechtsextreme Inhalte. Es ist kein Zufall, dass bekannte Gruppierungen aus dem Reichsbürger-Milieu – von Peter Fitzek und seinem „Königreich Deutschland“ bis hin zur „Patriotischen Union“ um Prinz Reiß – starke Bezüge zu verschieden esoterischen Weltbildern aufweisen. Denn bereits zur NS-Zeit gab es entsprechende Verbindungen zwischen den Milieus.

A spectre is haunting Europe—the spectre of bureaucracy. All the Powers of old Europe have entered into an unholy alliance to exorcise this spectre: The EU Commission, Member States, industry, even J.D. Vance. This threatens the digital rights and rules built up in the last decade.

The spyware attack targeting WhatsApp, disclosed in August as an in-the-wild exploit, garnered significant attention. By simply knowing a victim's phone number, an attacker could launch a remote, zero-interaction attack against the WhatsApp application on Apple devices, including iPhones, iPads, and Macs. Subsequent reports indicated that WhatsApp on Samsung devices was also targeted by similar exploits. In this presentation, we will share our in-depth analysis of this attack, deconstructing the 0-click exploit chain built upon two core vulnerabilities: CVE-2025-55177 and CVE-2025-43300. We will demonstrate how attackers chained these vulnerabilities to remotely compromise WhatsApp and the underlying iOS system without any user interaction or awareness. Following our analysis, we successfully reproduced the exploit chain and constructed an effective PoC capable of simultaneously crashing the target application on iPhones, iPads, and Macs. Finally, we will present our analysis of relate

Bluetooth headphones and earbuds are everywhere, and we were wondering what attackers could abuse them for. Sure, they can probably do things like finding out what the person is currently listening to. But what else? During our research we discovered three vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-20700, CVE-2025-20701, CVE-2025-20702) in popular Bluetooth audio chips developed by Airoha. These chips are used by many popular device manufacturers in numerous Bluetooth headphones and earbuds. The identified vulnerabilities may allow a complete device compromise. We demonstrate the immediate impact using a pair of current-generation headphones. We also demonstrate how a compromised Bluetooth peripheral can be abused to attack paired devices, like smartphones, due to their trust relationship with the peripheral. This presentation will give an overview over the vulnerabilities and a demonstration and discussion of their impact.

Presenting FEX, a translation layer to run x86 apps and games on ARM devices: Learn why x86 is such a pain to emulate, what tricks and techniques make your games fly with minimal translation overhead, and how we are seamless enough that you'll forget what CPU you're using in the first place!

Science advances by extending our senses beyond the limits of human perception, pushing the boundaries of what we can observe. In photon science, imaging detectors serve as the eyes of science, translating invisible processes into measurable and analysable data. Behind every image lies a deep understanding of how detectors see, respond and perform. At facilities like the European XFEL, the world's most powerful X-ray free-electron laser located in the Hamburg metropolitan area, imaging detectors capture ultrashort X-ray flashes at MHz frame rates and with high dynamic range. Without these advanced detectors, even the brightest X-ray laser beam would remain invisible. They help to reveal what would otherwise stay hidden, such as the structure of biomolecules, the behaviour of novel materials, and matter under extreme conditions. But how do we know they will perform as expected? And how do we design systems capable of “seeing” the invisible?

This presentation examines artistic practices that engage with sociotechnical systems through tactical interventions. The talk proposes art as a form of infrastructural critique and counter-technology. It also introduces a forthcoming HackLab designed to foster collaborative development of open-source tools addressing digital authoritarianism, surveillance capitalism, propaganda infrastructures, and ideological warfare.

I successfully failed with a literature related project and accidentally built a ChatGPT detector. Then I spoke to the people who uploaded ChatGPT generated content on Wikipedia.

Learn from our mistakes during the first iteration of Network Operations for Europe's largest furry convention, Eurofurence. Dieses Jahr hat ein kleines Team aus dem Chaos, Furries und Chaos-Furries ein neues Netzwerk-OC gegründet, um die Eurofurence mit gutem premium ???? Internetz auszustatten. Wir erzählen von unseren Erfahrungen und den sozialen sowie technischen Herausforderungen.

Have you ever wondered how the chips and algorithms that made all those electronic music hits work? Us too! At The Usual Suspects we create open source emulations of famous music hardware, synthesizers and effect units. After releasing some emulations of devices around the Motorola 563xx DSP chip, we made further steps into reverse engineering custom silicon chips to achieve what no one has done before: a real low-level emulation of the JP-8000. This famous synthesizer featured a special "SuperSaw" oscillator algorithm, which defined an entire generation of electronic and trance music. The main obstacle was emulating the 4 custom DSP chips the device used, which ran software written with a completely undocumented instruction set. In this talk I will go through the story of how we overcame that obstacle, using a mixture of automated silicon reverse engineering, probing the chip with an Arduino, statistical analysis of the opcodes and fuzzing. Finally, I will talk about how we made the e

In unserer „Unnecessarily Complicated Kitchen“ hacken wir die Gesetze der Kulinarik. Ich zeige live, wie Hitze, Chemie und Chaos zusammenwirken, wenn Moleküle tanzen, Emulsionen kollabieren und Geschmack zu Wissenschaft wird. Zwischen Pfanne und Physik entdecken wir, warum Kochen im Grunde angewandtes Debugging ist – und wie man Naturgesetze so würzt, dass sie schmecken.

(NO RECORDING) Zu unserer Freude haben sich in den letzten Jahren immer mehr Junghacker:innen auf dem Congress eingefunden. Daher bieten wir auch diesmal, wie schon in den Vorjahren, einen speziell auf Kinder und Jugendliche zugeschnittenen Junghacker:innentag an. Am zweiten Congresstag, dem 28. Dezember 2024, organisieren Freiwillige aus vielen Assemblies von etwa 10 bis 17 Uhr ein vielseitiges Workshop-Programm für angehende Hacker:innen.

(NO RECORDING) In this talk, I will describe how my team and I systematically exploited around a dozen home-rolled network encryption protocols used by popular mobile apps like RedNote, Alipay, and some of the most popular mobile browsers in China to encrypt sensitive information. I'll demonstrate how network eavesdroppers could access users' browsing history and mobile activity. This is a systemic issue; despite our work on the above protocols and the resulting vulnerability disclosures, this plague of home-rolled and proprietary encryption is still at large. I will end by discussing how we got here, re-affirm the age-old adage, “Don’t roll your own crypto!”, and call on hackers around the world to help us move towards HTTPS everywhere in understudied app ecosystems.

The session title is fashioned after the Kenyan movement building rhetoric “Hatupangwingwi” which is Kenyan slang meant as a call to action to counter anti-movement building techniques by the political class and resist infiltration and corruption. This is true for the organisation and movement building towards inclusive identity regimes in Kenya. The session seeks to explore the lessons from Kenya’s journey to digitalization of public services and the uptake of Digital Public infrastructure. It digs deeper on the power of us and how civil society could stop a destructive surveillance driven digitalisation thus protecting millions of Kenyans.

Lightning Talks

Könntest du jetzt noch sagen, was du heute online gemacht hast? Für viele ist das Internet so selbstverständlich, dass sie es kaum noch merken, wenn sie es benutzen. Dennoch sind viele Menschen unfreiwillig aus der digitalen Welt ausgeschlossen. Wie könnte das Internet für alle nutzbar werden?

We present a comprehensive security assessment of Unitree's robotic ecosystem. We identified and exploited multiple security flaws across multiple communication channels, including Bluetooth, LoRa radio, WebRTC, and cloud management services. Besides pwning multiple traditional binary or web vulnerabilities, we also exploit the embodied AI agent in the robots, performing prompt injection and achieve root-level remote code execution. Furthermore, we leverage a flaw in cloud management services to take over any Unitree G1 robot connected to the Internet. By deobfuscating and patching the customized, VM-based obfuscated binaries, we successfully unlocked forbidden robotic movements restricted by the vendor firmware on consumer models such as the G1 AIR. We hope our findings could offer a roadmap for manufacturers to strengthen robotic designs, while arming researchers and consumers with critical knowledge to assess security in next-generation robotic systems.

In 2022, CitizenLab contacted a member of the Spanish non-profit Irídia to tell them that one of their members had likely been hacked with Pegasus spyware. The target, a lawyer, had been spied on by the Spanish government in 2020 because he represented a Catalan politician who was in prison. His phone was infected with Pegasus during the COVID-19 lockdown, on the same day he was having an online meeting with other lawyers working on the case. Irídia and the lawyer (Andreu) decided to take the case to court. A few years later, he met with Data Rights and invited them to join forces and bring in partners from across Europe to increase the impact. This collaboration led to the creation of the PEGA coalition in May 2025. This talk goes over the status of the case and work we have done across Europe to bring spyware use in court.

Auf der Insel Rügen und in Österreich tut sich was - und zwar neue Chaos Events. Wir möchten über Anforderungen, Herausforderungen, Hürden, Erfahrungen und Glücksmomente aus unserer Sicht der Orga erzählen. Das InselChaos fand im LaGrange e.V. im September 2025 statt und bildet den Auftakt für weitere kreative, informative und chaotische Events auf der Insel Rügen. Das Håck ma’s Castle wird mit etwas Humor auch über Herausforderungen sprechen, welche unter anderem durch dezentrale Teams aus diversen Hackspaces entstehen.

Trump has staged an unscheduled, midair rapid disassembly of the global system of trade. Ironically, it is this system that prevented all of America's trading partners from disenshittifying their internet: the US trade representative threatened the world with tariffs unless they passed laws that criminalized reverse-engineering and modding. By banning "adversarial interoperability," America handcuffed the world's technologists, banning them from creating the mods, hacks, alt clients, scrapers, and other tools needed to liberate their neighbours from the enshittificatory predations of the ketamine-addled zuckermuskian tyrants of US Big Tech. Well, when life gives you SARS, you make sarsaparilla. The Trump tariffs are here, and it's time to pick the locks on the those handcuffs and set the world's hackers loose on Big Tech. Happy Liberation Day, everyone!

It is 1976 and the USA long stopped going to the Moon when a Soviet automatic landing station called Luna 24 descends to the Lunar surface. It touches down on 3.3 Billion year old rock formations at a place no mission has ever gone before. What exactly happened remains a mystery to this day, but the space probe managed to take a 2.3 m long drill core from the Lunar regolith, packaged the sample in a genius way and launched it for its voyage to Earth. Some days later the sample entered earths atmosphere and landed in remote Siberia and ended up in our hands more than 50 Years later. We tell the story of the sample, the people that brought it to Earth and how we analyzed it with the newest methods including µm sized high intensity X-ray beams, 30kV electron beams and LN2 cooled infrared spectrometers.

This talk demonstrates end-to-end prompt injection exploits that compromise agentic systems. Specifically, we will discuss exploits that target computer-use and coding agents, such as Anthropic's Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Google Jules, Devin AI, ChatGPT Operator, Amazon Q, AWS Kiro, and others. Exploits will impact confidentiality, system integrity, and the future of AI-driven automation, including remote code execution, exfiltration of sensitive information such as access tokens, and even joining Agents to traditional command and control infrastructure. Which are known as "ZombAIs", a term first coined by the presenter as well as long-term prompt injection persistence in AI coding agents. Additionally, we will explore how nation state TTPs such as ClickFix apply to Computer-Use systems and how they can trick AI systems and lead to full system compromise (AI ClickFix). Finally, we will cover current mitigation strategies and forward-looking recommendations and strategic thoughts.

Mit den Prozessen im Budapest-Komplex wird ein Exempel statuiert - nicht nur gegen Einzelne, sondern gegen antifaschistische Praxis insgesamt. Die Behauptung einer kriminellen Vereinigung mit Mordabsichten stellt eine absurde juristische Eskalation des staatlichen Vorgehens gegen Antifaschist*innen dar und steht in keinem Verhältnis zu den verhandelten Vorkommnissen. Die Verfahren in dieser Weise zu verfolgen, lässt vor allem auf ein hohes Ausforschungs- und Einschüchterungsinteresse schließen. Mit dieser Prozesswelle und den Repressionen gegen Freund*innen und Angehörige wird antifaschistisches Engagement massiv kriminalisiert und ein verzerrtes Bild von politischem Widerstand gezeichnet - während gleichzeitig rechte Gewalt europaweit zunimmt und faschistische Parteien erstarken. Wir sehen, dass Angriffe auf Rechtsstaatlichkeit und Zivilgesellschaft immer weiter zunehmen.

In this talk, we will give an introduction into the project (i.e. how it all started at 38c3 and why we are here now), provide an in-depth review of how the development process of our pager worked and what our future goals are. In our introduction, we will talk about the origin and exploration phase of the inital pager idea (i.e. how we went from the idea of bringing POCSAG Pager transmitter to 38c3, over a cable-bound prototype, to a first working pager on a proper PCB). We will also present our plans of connecting our POCSAG transmitter infrastructure to THOT (CERTs own dispatch software). For our in-depth review about the project, we explain how we encountered major reception problems, how we analyzed them at easterhegg22 and conducted experiments there, and why we are opting for a custom HF frontend design instead of an already-made one from chinese vendors. Moreover, we provide an overview of our transmitter devices and give some advice on how to replicate those.

**Over the past few decades, nucleic acids have increasingly been investigated as alternative data storage media and platforms for molecular computing. This talk builds on past research and introduces another branch to the field: DNA cryptography based on random chemistry. This technology provides a platform for conceiving new security architectures that bridge the physical with the digital world.**

Both within the EU as well as nationally in Germany, there exists a renewed drive to implement data retention, a practice struck down by the ECJ and discontinued in many national legislations. In parallel, cross-border access to stored data has been mandated within the EU as “e-evidence”, and will soon be extended to 90+ countries under the umbrella of the EU cybercrime convention. In principle, all data stored by service providers will be available to law enforcement as part of a criminal investigation. The timing of both initiatives is not coincidental, as access to data naturally relies on the availability of data. The talk will address the state of play on data retention in various legislations, and introduce the practice of cross border access to stored data by law enforcement as well as its shortcomings and threats to privacy and confidentiality.

Aus einem Barwitz wurde ein Projekt! Blumenthal7 ist die letzte vollständig erhaltene Schachtanlage des ehemaligen Steinkohlebergwerks General Blumenthal in Recklinghausen im nördlichen Ruhrgebiet. Nach diversen Startschwierigkeiten ist aus im Dornröschenschlaf liegenden Industriebrache ein Projekt geworden das bereits jetzt einer Vielzahl von Entitäten und Gruppen eine Heimat und einen großen, nahezu grenzenlosen Spielplatz bietet. Begleitet uns gerne auf beim Power Cycle B7

This talk presents Apple's link-layer protocol Low-Latency WiFi and how it achieves its real-time capabilities to enable Continuity features like Sidecar Display and Continuity Camera. We make more kernel logging available on iOS and build a log aggregator that combines and aligns system- and network-level log sources from iOS and macOS.

This talk is a multidisciplinary tale about Awful Interception. One foot in network measurements and network scanning, other in sociology of technologies, it draws a very detailed portrait of the russian surveillance industry. Our small team from the Citizen Lab (University of Toronto) and the Center for Internet and Society of the CNRS (France) have been looking at the so-called SORM systems since 2017. SORM is the abbreviation used to describe the set of hardware and software solutions designed to mirror, store and transmit user traffic from ISPs to the FSB. By the time of writing of this proposal, the usage of SORM has been also extended to the occupied territories of Ukraine. We wanted to really understand what kinds of data SORM can see, how it stores and transmits data, but also how it is implemented at the ISP level and how it is used in courts (well, it was supposed to help "prevent crime" after all).

Wir geben Einblicke in zwei intensive Wochen Planung, Koordination und Aufbau, den Betrieb einer (improvisierten) Bodenstation, sprechen über technische Hürden, Antennendesign und Organisation – und wie wir schließlich mit Astronautin Rabea Rogge im Weltraum gefunkt haben.

(NO RECORDING) Der Trend geht dahin, aus Gesundheitsdaten große zentralisierte Datenbanken aufzubauen. Eine datensparsame Alternative dazu ist, in einem verschlüsseltem Netzwerk gemeinsam auf verteilten privaten Daten zu rechnen, ohne sie miteinander teilen zu müssen. Perspektivisch können so demokratischere Datenströme geschaffen werden, die Patient:innen als aktiv Teilhabende statt als passive Datenquellen einbinden. Kommt mit auf eine Reise, die vor sechs Jahren in Deutschland gestartet ist und jetzt die erste europäische klinische Studie mit Secure Multiparty Computation (SMPC) realisiert hat.

Das war nicht das Jahr 2025, das wir bestellt hatten.

What does knitting have to do with espionage? Can embroidery help your mental health? This talk shows how the skills to create textile art have enabled people to resist and to persist under oppressive regimes for centuries. And it offers ways to keep doing so.

The talk will be about our experience from building an open-architecture secure element from the ground up. It explains why openness became part of the security model, how it reshaped design and development workflows, and where reality pushed back — through legal constraints, third-party IP, or export controls. It walks through the secure boot chain, attestation model, firmware update flow, integration APIs, and the testing framework built for external inspection. Real examples of security evaluations by independent researchers are presented, showing what was learned from their findings and how those exchanges raised the overall security bar. The goal is to provoke discussion on how open collaboration can make hardware more verifiable, adaptable, auditable and while keeping secure.

Der Vortrag diskutiert Herausforderungen dezentraler Netzwerke aus soziologischer Perspektive. Als dezentrale Netzwerke werden technische Infrastrukturen verstanden, die nicht von einer zentralen Autorität, sondern verteilt über Instanzen zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Nutzer:innen profitieren von dieser Infrastruktur, nutzen beispielsweise das Fediverse oder das Tor-Netzwerk, ohne zur Infrastruktur beizutragen. Zugleich können dezentrale Netzwerke nur dann bestehen, wenn hinreichende Ressourcen von Personen oder Organisationen mobilisiert werden, um das Netzwerk überhaupt zur Verfügung zu stellen. Dies führt zur originären Instabilität dezentraler Netzwerke, wenn nicht der Weg der Kommodifizierung des Nutzer:innenverhaltens eingeschlagen wird. Aufbauend auf dieser Zustandsbeschreibung, werden Bedingungen erörtert, um Kollektivgüter wie dezentrale Netzwerke organisatorisch (und nicht technisch) herzustellen.

The character of drone wars has changed. The large, cumbersome long-range drones have been complemented with small and low-budget drones. Moreover, more and more states are developing, deploying and selling them. Ten years ago at least 50 states were developing them. At the top are USA, Israel, Turkey, China, Iran and Russia. Russia's attack on Ukraine has unleashed a drone war unlike any seen before. In short time the Ukraine has build significant drone production capabilities and announcement that it will increase its own production of quadcopters and kamikaze drones to one million units per year. German defense companies and startups are now promoting a “drone wall on NATO's eastern flank.” Moreover, despite their vulnerability to air defenses, large drones are also being further developed. They are intended to accompany next generation fighter jets in swarms. In this talk, past and current developments are discussed. What are the perspectives now?

A brief history of typographic misbehavior or intended and unintended uses of variable fonts. Nine years after the introduction of variable fonts, their most exciting uses have little to do with what variable fonts originally were intended for and their original promise of smaller file sizes. The talk looks at how designers turned a pragmatic font format into a field for experimentation — from animated typography and uniwidth button text to pattern fonts and typographic side effects with unintended aesthetics. Using examples from projects such as TypoLabs, Marjoree, Kario (the variable font that’s used as part of the 39C3 visual identity), and Bronco, we’ll explore how variable fonts evolved from efficiency tools into creative systems — and why the most interesting ideas often emerge when technology is used in unintended ways.

Nothing stops [this train](https://ai-2027.com/). It just [might not arrive on schedule](https://www.interconnects.ai/p/brakes-on-an-intelligence-explosion)... LLMs appear unlikely to become capable of either true human-level novelty creation or AGI. However, they excel at task execution in [well-established task domains](https://epochai.substack.com/p/most-ai-value-will-come-from-broad), even exceeding most humans in some of these domains. This capability set has yielded an "Agentic Revolution", where LLMs are being deployed as components of software systems for various tasks. These **LLM Agents** work **_just well enough_** to deploy in scenarios for which they are either [not yet safe]

Why is electronics manufacturing hard? Can it ever be made easy and more accessible? What will it take to relocate industrial production to Europe? We share with you what we learned when we spent more than 1 year setting up our own production line in our office in Hamburg. Turns out a lot of the difficulties are rarely talked about or hidden behind "manufacturing is high CAPEX". Come and learn with us the nitty gritty details of batch reflow ovens, stencil printing at scale, and how OpenPnP is a key enabler in our process. While we are far from done with this work, we hope to see others replicate it and collectively reclaim the ownership of the means of electronics production.

Factorio ist ein Fabriksimulationsspiel mit integriertem Logiksystem. Dies ermöglichte mir den Bau einer CPU, die unter anderem aus einer 5-stufiger Pipeline, einer Forwarding Logikeinheit, Interrupt Handling sowie einem I/O Interface besteht. Über einen selbst geschriebenen Assembler konnte ich ein eigenes Betriebssystem und Programme wie Minesweeper oder Snake integrieren. Der Talk soll euch zeigen, wie sich klassische Computerarchitektur in einem völlig anderen technischen Kontext umsetzen lässt und wo dabei überraschend echte Probleme der CPU-Entwicklung auftreten. Kommt mit auf die Reise: Vom Blick auf den gesamten Computer bis hinunter zu den einzelnen Logikgattern ist es nur eine Mausradbewegung entfernt!

Jahrelang war die staatliche Intransparenz in Österreich nur eine Punchline in den Congress-Talks von Frag Den Staat. Damit könnte jetzt Schluss sein: seit heuer haben Bürger:innen endlich ein Recht, Dokumente einzusehen und ein Informationsfreiheitsgesetz. Wir zeigen, was Deutschland aus der über ein Jahrzehnt andauernden Kampagne für die Abschaffung des Amtsgeheimnisses lernen kann, wofür uns die Nachbarländer beneiden werden und wofür sich Bayern besonders schämen sollte.

While FPGA developers usually try to minimize the power consumption of their designs, we approached the problem from the opposite perspective: what is the maximum power consumption that can be achieved or wasted on an FPGA? Short answer: we found that it’s easy to implement oscillators running at 6 GHz that can theoretically dissipate around 20 kW on a large cloud FPGA when driving the signal to all the available resources. It is interesting to note that this power density is not very far away from that of the surface of the sun. However, such power load jump is usually not a problem as it will trigger some protection circuitry. This led us to the next question: would a localized hotspot with such power density damage the chip if we remain within the typical power envelope of a cloud FPGA (~100 W)?

"freiheit.exe“ ist eine Lecture über die ideologischen Rootkits des Silicon Valley. Sie schlägt den Bogen von den italienischen Futuristen zu den heutigen Tech-Feudalisten, vom Akzelerationismus zur Demokratieskepsis der Libertären, von Tolkien zur PayPal-Mafia. Basierend auf den Recherchen zu meinem Theaterstück "freiheit.exe. Utopien als Malware", in dem journalistische Analyse auf performative Darstellung trifft.

Amidst gloomy headlines, extreme weather, and climate anxiety, the good stories often get lost. Yet they exist - inspiring people, clever engineering, real breakthroughs. And that's exactly what we bring you – the positive power cycles of the energy transition in action. And real energy on stage.

This talk explores the internals of Overwatch which make the game work under the hood. The end goal is to democratise development of Overwatch. Being able to host your own servers and modify the game client to your liking should not be up for discussion for a game many people have paid money for.

The USA is demanding from all 43 countries in the "Visa Waiver Programme" (VWP), which enables visa-free travel, to conclude an "Enhanced Border Security Partnership" (EBSP). This is intended to grant US authorities direct access to police databases in these - mostly European - countries containing fingerprints, facial images and other personal data. Anyone who refuses this forced "border partnership" faces exclusion from the visa-free travel programme.

Was passiert, wenn staatliche Domains auslaufen - und plötzlich jemand anderes sie besitzt? In diesem Vortrag wird berichtet, wie mehrere ehemals offizielle, aber unregistrierte Domains deutscher Bundesministerien und Behörden erworben werden konnten - und welche Datenströme dadurch sichtbar wurden. Über Monate hinweg konnten so DNS-Anfragen aus Netzen des Bundes empfangen werden - ein erhebliches Sicherheitsrisiko. Unter anderem da es so möglich war Accounts zu übernehmen, Validierungen von E-Mailsignaturen zu manipulieren, Anfrage umzuleiten und im Extremfall Code auf Systemen auszuführen. (Keine sensiblen Daten werden veröffentlicht; der Fokus liegt auf Forschung, Aufklärung und verantwortungsvollem Umgang mit den Ergebnissen.)

CSS is a programming language, and you can make games in it. Let's install NoScript and make some together!

Der Vortrag beschreibt, wie eine Gruppe von Begeisterten eine Sammlung von ca. 100 Flipperautomaten (Pinball Machines) am Leben und in spielbereitem Zustand erhält.

Zwischen offenen Briefen, Massenmails, Petitionen und Kaffee trinken : Zwei Ex-Insiderinnen aus dem Digitalausschuss und Bundestag erzählen, wie politische Einflussnahme wirklich funktioniert. Ein ehrlicher Blick hinter die Kulissen parlamentarischer Entscheidungsfindung – mit praktischen Tipps, wie die Zivilgesellschaft ihre Energie dort einsetzt, wo sie wirklich Wirkung entfaltet.

We pointed a commercial-off-the-shelf satellite dish at the sky and examined all of the geostationary satellite communications visible from our vantage point. A shockingly large amount of sensitive traffic is being broadcast unencrypted, including critical infrastructure, internal corporate and government communications, private citizens’ voice calls and SMS, and consumer Internet traffic from in-flight wifi and mobile networks.

Textiles are everywhere, yet few of us know how they’re made. This talk aims to give you an overview over the complete transformation from fiber to finished textile. We'll be exploring fiber properties, spinning, and techniques like weaving, knitting, crochet, braiding, and knotting, followed by finishing methods such as dyeing, printing, and embroidery. You’ll learn why not only fiber but also structure matters, and how to make or hack textiles on your own without relying on fast fashion or industrial tools.

"Don't roll your own crypto" is an often-repeated aphorism. It's good advice -- but then how does any cryptography get made? Writers of cryptography code like myself write code with bugs just like anyone else, so how do we take precautions against our own mistakes? In this talk, I will give a peek into the cryptographer's toolbox of advanced techniques to avoid bugs: targeted testing, model checking, mathematical proof assistants, information-flow analysis, and more. None of these techniques is a magic silver bullet, but they can help find flaws in reasoning about tricky corner cases in low-level code or prove that higher-level designs are sound, given a defined set of assumptions. We'll go over some examples and try to give a high-level feel for different workflows that create "high-assurance" code. Whether you know it or not, you use this type of cryptography code every day: in your browser, your messaging apps, and your favorite programming language standard libraries.

Milliarden von Kameras produzieren täglich Bilder, die zunehmend von Maschinen analysiert werden. In dieser Lecture Performance beleuchten wir die Entwicklung des maschinellen Sehens – von den frühen algorithmischen Ansätzen bis zu den heutigen Anwendungen – und schauen, wie verschiedene Künstler:innen diese Technologien nutzen und reflektieren. Anhand der beiden Arbeiten „Throwback Environment” und „Fomes Fomentarius Digitalis” betrachten wir die Nutzung des maschinellen Sehens in einem künstlerischen Feedback-Loop. Die Arbeiten machen sichtbar, was die eingesetzten Algorithmen sehen und in welchen Mustern sie operieren.

Xous is a message-passing microkernel implemented in pure Rust, targeting secure embedded applications. This talk covers three novel aspects of the OS: hardware MMU support (and why we had to make our own chip to get this feature), how and why we implemented the Rust standard library in Rust (instead of calling the C standard library, like most other Rust platforms), and how we combine the power of Rust semantics with virtual memory to create safe yet efficient asynchronous messaging primitives. We conclude with a short demo of the OS running on a new chip, the "Baochip-1x", which is an affordable, mostly-open RTL SoC built in 22nm TSMC, configured expressly for running Xous.

Generative AI models don't operate on human languages – they speak in **tokens**. Tokens are computational fragments that deconstruct language into subword units, stored in large dictionaries. These tokens encode not only language but also political ideologies, corporate interests, and cultural biases even before model training begins. Social media handles like *realdonaldtrump*, brand names like *louisvuitton*, or even *!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* exist as single tokens, while other words remain fragmented. Through various artistic and adversarial experiments, we demonstrate that tokenization is a political act that determines what can be represented and how images become computable through language.

What happens when AI-powered criminals meet AI-powered hunters? A technical arms race where both sides are vibing their way through exploitation—and the backdoors write themselves. In October 2025, we investigated Taiwan's fake delivery scam ecosystem targeting convenience store customers. What started as social engineering on social media became a deep dive into two distinct fraud platforms—both bearing the unmistakable fingerprints of AI-generated code. Their developers left more than just bugs: authentication flaws, file management oversights, and database implementations that screamed "I asked LLM and deployed without reading." We turned their sloppiness into weaponized OSINT. Through strategic reconnaissance, careful database analysis, and meticulous operational security, we achieved complete system access on multiple fraud infrastructures.

Join bleeptrack for a deep dive into the fascinating world of procedural generation beyond the screen. From stickers and paper lanterns to PCBs, furniture, and even physical procedural generators, this talk explores the challenges and creative possibilities of bringing generative projects into tangible form.

The TitanM2 chip has been central to the security of the google pixel series since the Pixel 6. It is based on a modified RISC-V design with a bignum accelerator. Google added some non standard instructions to the RISC-V ISA. This talk investigates the reverse engineering using Ghidra, and simulation of the firmware in python.

The Emergency Alert System (EAS) and its SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding) protocol are public alerting technologies that broadcast short digital bursts over VHF triggering emergency messages on millions of receivers across North America. In Mexico, this technology was integrated into the Seismic Alert System (SASMEX) which more than 30 million people in the central part of the country rely on to prepare for frequent earthquakes. While new alerting technologies have emerged, the EAS-SAME network continues to play an important role for public safety in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. Yet, the same small packets of bits that can help protect a city could also, in the wrong hands, destabilize it. This talk examines how these systems operate and reveals a troubling truth: spoofing these alerts is far easier than most people expect.

KIs (bzw. LLMs) wirken immer menschlicher. Schon längst ist es schwer bis unmöglich zu erkennen, ob ein Text von einer KI oder einem Menschen geschrieben wurde. Maschinen dringen immer mehr in den menschlichen Diskurs ein. Wir wollen das nicht länger hinnehmen und drehen den Spieß um.

(NO RECORDING) Jedes Jahr zwischen Weihnachten und Neujahr treffen sich tausende Hacker*innen zum Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg. Der Azubi-Tag ist eine günstige Gelegenheit für Auszubildende, den Congress zu besuchen, den CCC kennenzulernen und viel über IT-Security, Technik und Gesellschaft zu lernen. Wir freuen uns, diesen Tag nun zum dritten Mal anbieten zu können.

Data about greenhouse gas emissions, both from countries and individual factories, is often publicly available. However, the data sources are often not as accessible and reliable as they should be. EU emission databases contain obvious flaws, and nobody wants to be responsible.

3D-Printers have given us all the unprecedented ability to manufacture mechanical parts with a very low barrier to entry. The only thing between your idea and its physical manifestation is the process of designing the parts. However, this is actually a topic of incredible depth: Design engineering is a whole discipline to itself, built on top of tons and tons of heuristics to produce shapes that are functional, strong, and importantly: well-manufacturable In this talk, I will present the rules for designing well-printable parts and touch on other areas of design considerations so you can learn to create parts that work first try and can be reproduced by others on their 3d-printers easily.
