                Are the "out takes" that end up on the editing room floor going to be released? I'd be interested in seeing some of the things that didn't make the final cut.

                    Re: DEFCON Documentary updates

                    This is just an update on the documentary, for those of you following this project. The film is about done. At this point, all the main pieces are in place, and minor adjustments are being made to sound levels, credits, and things like this. We've about decided on the physical form factor for the special editions we'll be selling (but the film will still be released for free, electronically). The free edition won't include all the extras and out-takes. The paid editions will include lots of other content that isn't part of the main film.

                    The final film is going to be just under 2 hours long, and we'll be premiering the film on Thursday night, after DC101. We'll be releasing more information, publicly, in the very near future for those looking to purchase one of the special edition versions of the film. So keep your eyes out, because we are actively working to get all the details hammered out and released.

                        DEF CON Documentary in 720p - With Subtitles

                        For those of you wanting to watch the documentary on YouTube you can find it here:

                        http://youtu.be/SUhyeY0Fsvw

                        It has (currently) English and Japanese subtitles but I hear Chinese is being done now.

                            If that node never went offline, and Dark Tangent never had his party that was DEFCON 1, what would we all be doing right now? Would Wi-fi still be mostly unsecure? Would more 0-Days be out there? Would anyone know who Mitnick is?

                                As seen in my earlier post, and elsewhere on the internet, I've been searching for this old hacker/phreaker documentary for years. It was released back in like 2002 or 2003 maybe. Epic stuff. Single-digit DEFCON years, early HOPE cons, late night web defacement stuff, etc.

                                Jason Scott and I have been in touch with the film's creator for a while now, privately trying to convince her to re-release it. (There were some music rights that she never secured, so we talked about funding the payment of those rights or helping her re-edit the original, etc.) Well, it's finally happened.

                                As Jason and I have been tweeting, this film is back...

                                ... here's some of my Twittering about all this, with screenshots...

                                For heaven's sake, there's even super old DEFCON Shoot footage in there as a bonus reel! Check out CHS way back in the day!

                                ... so, yeah. I'm naturally super thrilled about all this. Jennifer (the film's creator) put it on Vimeo and (at my urging, because Vimeo's streaming is kind of ass) she also enabled "download this feature" to anyone who adds it to their OnDemand library.

                                That means you could just all start pirating and sharing it, but I'd ask that if you really are interested in this history, consider just clicking the purchase button. She put a lot into getting this back from the grave and I hope that she at least makes back the $200 or so that it cost her to put it up on Vimeo like this.

                                Alternately, if you really don't want to buy it, I'm happy to have a hacker viewing party for this piece anytime I'm in the same place as any of you. You bring the whisky, i'll bring the film.
