This is absolutely ridiculous. Imagine some fuckers just coming into your room while you’re with your SO making love or something.

    There is also no requirement to be a “good guy” to attend the conference.

    Correct. But it’s kind of the inevitable outcome that only “good guys” attend. Why would any bad actor go there and risk being exposed / caught…

      Defcon is a useful resource for networking and learning. It being run by and for good guys doesn’t mean bad guys don’t find the event useful. The vague risk of “getting caught” is probably worth taking, regardless of whether that risk is tangible, especially if they follow proper security practices.
