@mwfc I looked but there seems to be no straightforward way to export the whole thing. To give you an idea, individual (non-business reg) is EUR 175 for early bird, EUR 220 later. Similar diff or tutorials.

But do make a user, that comes with no obligations and unless something unexpected happens will be reusable for later years.

@mwfc I agree it would be better to have the prices quoted on a public page, I'll see if I can get that sorted soonish.

Whether a result of clumsiness of a bored operator or deliberate subterfuge, there are clues that the supposed NSA front Equation Group operated out of Russia. The question remains: What were they doing that for?

Reprising my 2016 article "The Possibly Russian Fingerprints on the Shadow Brokers' Trick or Treat Package", https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2016/11/the-possibly-russian-fingerprints-on.html or trackerless https://nxdomain.no/~peter/possible_russian_fingerprints_on_the_shadow_brokers_trick_or_treat_package.html #cybercrime #hacking #Russian_cybercrime #EquationGroup #ShadowBrokers #NSA #RFC1918

For the less jaded when it comes to #spambot antics, here is what it looks like when one mistakes my #openbsd #spamd for an open relay: https://nxdomain.no/~peter/2023-06-30_spambot_in_russia_plays_relay_games.txt (local parts minimally obfuscated) - Enjoy!

@dentangle The local organizers report that there are currently no national or local COVID-19 restrictions in place in Portugal. Should conditions change we will of course comply with any mandates and will likely go a tad stricter than the general guidelines (much like BSDCan where we required masks indoors while the official guidance was recommending masks).

pitrh,
@pitrh@mastodon.social avatar

@dentangle apparently the BSDCan policy was found wanting by #PublicHealtPledge, but advice on that was only sent us on the day the conference started despite us having done the work months earlier.

Apparently the misguided belief that #censorship via faking #DNS answers is making the rounds among legislators. Perhaps it is time to reprise my 2013 piece "The UK "Porn" Filter Blocks Kids' Access To Tech, Civil Liberties Websites" https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-uk-porn-filter-blocks-kids-access.html

@dentangle @phpledge We will sync with the local organizers on that.

My suggestion is copying the @bsdcan one (https://bsdcan.org, a little down the page).

Any necessary modifications would need to be pointed out within the next couple of weeks, preferably by June 1st when registration starts.

I assume https://publichealthpledge.com/ and links therein is the most useful guidance?
