Policy@DEFCON
https://www.defcon.org/html/links/dc-policy.html
Hackers are early users and abusers of technology, and that technology is now critical to modern life. As governments make policy decisions about technology Hackers, researchers and academics need to be part of that conversation before decisions are made, not after policies are implemented. To do that DEF CON is a place for everyone on the policy and technology spectrum to interact, learn from each other, and improve technology.
Policy will build connections across and between technical and policy experts and provide opportunities for attendees interested in learning more about how policy and technology intersect and to examine the challenges at this intersection.
Our Policy program will consist of Main stage presentation and panels, daytime sessions in our policy track, and some evening lounges that will provide an off the record and more intimate setting to have policy-focused conversation​
Tech policy is going to happen and we believe including diverse expert voices will improve outcomes across the policy-technology spectrum by bridging the gap between technical and policy practitioners. Senior government officials, policy experts, nonprofit and the private sector, security researchers, hackers, academics and technologists from around the world all come together at Policy @ DEF CON.​
