LayerOne Hits Los Angeles 8
Nck writes "This weekend in L.A. will house LayerOne conference where hundreds will gather at the Los Angeles International Airport Westin to hear discussion on subjects from WiFi, crypto, security and how the DMCA is threatening to strangle reverse engineering and the future of interoperability to a presentation on network white ops by Dan Kaminsky. The conference is a collaborative effort put together by a hack-savvy group to educate the masses."

Not that any self-respecting geek would want to go THERE, god forbid.

From my past experience, nearly all efforts by a group that contains "hack" in their name or description hasn't been able to "educate the masses". Most of these people just don't have what it takes to do that. What they need to do instead is to educate the media (TV, newspapers, radio, et cetera) and those will "educate" the populus.

And you think the media will be willing to spread the gospel? Keep in mind that the media are largely controlled by large corporations, and hackers and large corps tend not to be friends, exactly. (grammar?!)
