  - title: libusb Maintainer fail - How I failed to run an open source project

    description: >-
      In 2010 I was asked by the second maintainer in a row to take over as new
      maintainer of the libusb project. The first time I had declined. The
      second time I accepted, and sadly failed. Eventually a hostile fork
      emerged, with the explicit goal to take over the original project. I will
      tell you my story, which mistakes I made and what I learned - about
      independent and corporate contributors in open source projects, about
      package maintainers in downstream OS distributions, about trolls on the
      internet, about GitHub Inc. and about myself. The hostile fork? It wasn't
      merged.

      Tino: True lessons everyone involved in OSS will have to learn eventually.

      Did you ever want to have access to a few hundred thousand
      network end points? Or a few hundred thousand phone numbers? A
      short look behind the curtains of how not to do network
      security.

      Alain: Very fun and at the same time horrific talk. Basically everyone
      on a cable network can easily gain access to a root shell on everyone
      elses cable modem. Not only that, you can also listen in to other
      peoples VOIP calls or call from somebody eleses number.

      Horrifying, because it's so simple and extremely powerful.

      In the questions, it's also very interesting at 30:15 when he's being
      asked an easy question and the guy gets very uneasy and says: "The
      problem is the law. I cannot tell you about ....".

      Phil: Best presentation of 32c3 so far!

      Alain: Simon Menner shows a great collection of pictures from the best
      treasure trove that is accessible to us from surveillance
      states. He tells a good story on how absurd and dangerous surveillance
      is at the same time.

      It's also curious to hear that only footage from eastern countries is
      available, the BND only released 14 totally irrelevant pictures of all
      of the cold war (something like a cork screw...). So of course the
      easter states totally look illegal compared to just nothing.

      enough to see Rowhammer

      Recent studies have found that repeated accesses to DRAM rows
      can cause random bit flips, resulting in the so called Rowhammer
      vulnerability. We present Rowhammer.js, the first remote
      software-induced hardware-fault attack, from JavaScript. We also
      extend our presentation with an overview of cache side-channel
      attacks, that use the same technique to evict data from the

       Heads is an open source custom firmware and OS configuration for laptops and servers that aims to provide slightly better physical security and protection for data on the system. Unlike Tails, which aims to be a stateless OS that leaves no trace on the computer of its presence, Heads is intended for the case where you need to store data and state on the computer. It targets specific models of commodity hardware and takes advantage of lessons learned from several years of vulnerability research. This talk provides a high level overview of Heads, a demo of installing it on a Thinkpad and a tour of some of the attacks that it protects against.
       max: Detailed explanation of heads - a stateful secure linux. Very techical. May be of interest if you try to defend state sponsored actors are very into IT-Security.

Attendees will learn about Pegasus’s use of 0-days, obfuscation, encryption, function hooking, and its ability to go unnoticed. We will present our detailed technical analysis that covers each payload stage of Pegasus including its exploit chain and the various 0-day vulnerabilities that the toolkit was using to jailbreak a device. After this talk attendees will have learned all of the technical details about Pegasus and Trident and how the vulnerabilities we found were patched.

To find out, we teamed up with scientists and lawyers from around the country—and a presidential candidate—to initiate the first presidential election recounts motivated primarily by e-voting security concerns.  In this talk, we will explain how the recounts took place, what we learned about the integrity of the election, and what needs to change to ensure that future U.S. elections are secure.
      max: Very well presented entertaining overview why election computers are no good idea in general. No particular interesting facts for people that followed the debate.

      Mit dem Erstarken der Rechtspopulisten (nicht nur in Deutschland) werden populistische Positionen immer häufiger hingenommen, obwohl es sich dabei um vermeintliche "Gewissenheiten" handelt, die bei näherer Betrachtung inakzeptabel sind. Solche Positionen beruhen nicht auf einer nachvollziehbaren Argumentation, sondern auf sprachlich-rhetorischen Tricks, die im Grunde leicht zu durchschauen sind, denen jedoch immer mehr Menschen auf den Leim gehen. Dieser Vortrag soll zeigen, welche Tricks das sind und wie Populisten demaskiert werden können. Dabei wird deutlich werden, dass nicht nur eine Partei für populistische Parolen anfällig ist.
      max: Sehenswert wie immer. Der alljährliche Talk über die deutsche Sprache. Lustiger aufgrund von praktischen Beispielen. Relativ klar Richtung Deutschland orientiert, da Rechtspopulisten wie die AFD detailiert betrachtet werden.

      Seit einigen Jahren formieren sich am rechten Rand der Gesellschaft explosionsartig neue rassistische, völkisch-nationalistische und offen nazistische Strömungen, Gruppen und Parteien. Einen erschreckenden Verstärker findet das neue braune Getöse in den sozialen Medien und sein Resonanzraum reicht inzwischen bis weit in die Mitte der Gesellschaft.
      Teil des Problems sind institutioneller Rassismus in den Behörden und unkontrollierbare Geheimdienste, die den Mob gewähren lassen: Dafür bietet der NSU-Komplex ein erschütterndes Beispiel. Vor dem neuen, sehr lauten, in der Tendenz aber auch gewalttätigen und terroristischen Phänomen rechter Formierung stehen Linke und bürgerliche Mitte ziemlich verdattert und hilflos.

      In einer Zeit der maßlose Massenüberwachung scheint die Digitale Souveränität den Einsatz privatsphärenfreundlicher Technologien als ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil von gesellschaftlichen Lösungsversuchen zwingend zu erfordern.

Unter anderem sind hier kryptographische Protokolle (z. B.  Blinde Signaturen, Zero-Knowlege Protokolle) und Methoden zur statistischen Auswertung von vertraulichen Daten  (z.B. K-Anonymität, Differentielle Vertraulichkeit) zu nennen.

      Why is it so hard to go to the Moon? The curse of Newtonian Mechanics and Tsiolkovsky's Rocket Equation force us to build huge rockets to achieve any meaningful activity on the Moon. There are two strategies to hack the laws of celestial mechanics: making fuel on the Moon and using cables to climb out of the gravity well. Here we focus on the latter, which is the Moon version of the famous space elevator. The difference to an Earth elevator is - anelevator to the Moon's surface is realistic with today's materials. In the talk an introduction to the general problem is given and a starting point for a discussion is given that can easily lead to a sustainable access to the Moon if there is demand to do so.
      max: You shall watch it if you have no clue about the idea of an space elevator yet. Gives a short introduction and overview on the topic from a very informed perspective. If youre really into this topic I can recommend Tim Pritloves corresponding podcast in "Raumzeit" (german).

      Since the early successes of moon missions in the Sixtie, mankind has moved on to the earth orbit and other deep space missions. But interest in the moon as a target has intensified recently as the strategies for future missions are evolving.
      max: My personal highlight of 33C3 so far. Besides all the problems on earth Jan Wörner, Director General of the European Space Agency, presents a vision for the proceeeding of mankind into space. Great presentation and motivating.

      The long term survival of the human species requires that we become an interplanetary species. But we must answer two big questions: where are we going, and how do we get there? We explore what scientists know (and don’t know) about humanity’s potential future homes both inside and outside the solar system, and then we’ll dive into the technological challenges of (and potential solutions for) getting humans to and colonizing a new planet.
      max: Well presented, enjoyable to listen to, not mind blowing.

      Today lasers are routinely flown on space and airborne platforms for scientific, military and telecommunication applications. While they make nice special effects in action and sci-fi movies, there are physical boundaries that guide the use of lasers in space and in surface to air/space scenarios. 'SDI' might not be straight forward, but intercepting airborne vehicles or laser based communication to submerged submarines is no longer science fiction. But can we use it for space travel? Lets see.    
      max: Fun facts about lasers in space. Again Well presented and enjoyable to listen to but not not mind blowing.

      Imagine, there is this huge data center but your user privileges allow you to access only 5% of the data. That is the exact same situation physicists face when trying to study the cosmos. 95% of our universe is made out of something that cannot be seen or touched. We generally call this unknown substance "dark matter" / "dark energy". The recent discovery of gravitational waves gives us a handle on the dark cosmos. We can now listen to invisible events in our universe. But there may also be other methods to shed light on the dark side.
      max: Again nice to see and not bad presented but not overwhelming as most of 33C3's space track, unfortunately.

      On Earth, distances are commonly given in meters and kilometers, and can be measured comfortably with measuring sticks, odometers or optical instruments. But how does that work in space, where machines take years to arrive at other bodies, and distant stars are utterly out of reach?
      From precise calculations to daring guesstimates, many different techniques and approaches are combined to form what's called the "cosmic distance ladder", giving more or less reasonable estimates of the distances between planets, stars and galaxies.
      Climb the distance ladder and get to know our place in Space from kilometers to Astronomical Units and light years, all the way to gigaparsecs and the reaches of the known universe.   
      max: Pretty pictures, gives the impression how tiny we are.

      Eigentlich ein Podcast der alle 14 Tage erscheint. Nach dem großen Erfolg auf dem Congress im letzten Jahr wird diesmal eine noch größere Show abgezogen: Experimente, die mal interessant, mal fragwürdig sind. Wissenschaftler, die mal belehrend und mal unzurechnungsfähig sind. Wissenschaftliche Studien, die mal nobelpreisverdächtig und mal zweifelhaft sind. Wissenschaft auf der Showbühne. It works, bitches!   

      Dazu sprechen sie über aktuelle wissenschaftliche Themen. Laaaangweilig! Wer will denn sowas sehen? Unstrukturiert, abschweifend, hoffnungslos subjektiv und immer garantiert methodisch inkorrekt.
      Wer hat diese Jungs wieder reingelassen?! Nicolas Wöhrl und Reinhard Remfort sind eine Gefahr für Leib und Leben. Unter dem Deckmantel der Wissenschaftskommunikation machen sie auf der Bühne alles das, was sie an der Uni nie gewagt hätten.
      max: Kurzweilig, extrem lustig mit dem ein oder anderen Bier in der Hand. Unstrukturiert, Chaos und inzeischen ein fester Bestandteil des Kongress.

      Im Forum Internet treffen sich seit einem Jahr EU-Vertreter mit Vertretern der großen US-Plattformen, um über freiwillige Kooperationen zu verhandeln. Damit soll der Rechtsstaat umgangen und die Terrorbekämpfung ohne notwendige demokratische Kontrolle teilweise privatisiert werden. 
      Die Vorgehensweise ist dabei aus der Urheberrechtsdurchsetzung und gescheiterten Handelsabkommen wie ACTA bekannt. Und mit der Hate-Speech-Debatte haben Regierungsvertreter zugleich das richtige Erpressungswerkzeug, um die Plattformen zur Kooperation zu bewegen: Wenn sie nicht mitmachen, haften sie einfach.
      Der Vortrag möchte über die aktuellen Entwicklungen aufklären und die Parallelen zwischen Anti-Terror-Kampf, Urheberrechtsdurchsetzung und Hate-Speech-Debatte berichten.
      max: Spannende juristische Bewertung der Forderungen, dass die Plattformanbieter sich um den Inhalt in den Sozialen Medien. Kümmern sollen. Thematisch sehenswert, nicht schlecht vorgetragen.

      The Nintendo Game Boy was an 8-bit handheld gaming console that competed with the SEGA Game Gear and the Atari Lynx. Compared to its competition, it had very little RAM (8 KB) and no color support (4 shades of gray at 160x144). It was succeeded by the Game Boy Color, which fixed this main shortcoming, but shared the same architecture. During the 14 year life span of the 8 bit Game Boy platform, game programmers kept understanding the hardware better and better, and continued finding new tricks for better graphics effects, such as sprite multiplexing, parallax and palette effects. This talk explains all the hardware details of the Game Boy: The programming model of the 8080/Z80-like LR35902 CPU, the system's sound, timer and I/O functionality, and programming details as well as common tricks involving the graphics processor ("PPU"), which was specifically designed for LCD output. The listener will get a good understanding of 8 bit programming and creative programming on extremely limited hardware, as well as common tricks that can be generalized to other systems. 
      max: Extremely technical talk about every detail of the Game Boy classic. Interesting for enthusiasts.

      Wie immer wagen wir den IT-Security-Alptraum-Ausblick auf das Jahr 2017 und darüber hinaus. Denn was wir wirklich wissen wollen, ist ja schließlich: Was kriecht, krabbelt und fliegt in Zukunft auf uns zu und in unseren digitalen Implants herum?
      Im Zuge von noch mehr Transparenz, Kritik & Selbstkritik und kontinuierlicher nachhaltiger Optimierung aller Prozesse werden wir außerdem frühere Voraussagen hinsichtlich des Eintreffens unserer Weissagungen prüfen.   
      max: Format so gut oder schlecht wie immer. Entweder man mag es oder nicht.
