Defcon 14 Full of Amazing Hardware Hacks

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the best-and-brightest dept.

nTrfAce writes "Defcon 14 is taking place right now in Las Vegas. You know it's serious when you see things like an IPV6 enabled refrigerator with an IP address of 1337:sec:badd:a22:DEF:C012::14. And of course using a rocket for war driving, er WarRocketing. And Joe Grand has created the absolutely coolest Defcon badge ever out of a PCB, PIC, and LEDs."

    Defcon should call up slashdot and ask where to send the award for the 'DoS attack' war game since obviously they won by ./'ing the defcon site.

  11. my favirote LED badge... by Lumpy · · Score: 5, Funny

    I ordered one with IR led's instead and place it on a hat. I have it scroll "Fuck OFF Security GUYS!" so only the people watching the security cameras can read it.

    Quite fun to get accosted by someone that comes down to ask me about my profanity on my hat to get me looking at them with it in my hand going "What?? this has not worked for weeks." while showing them a blank screen, and I walk away. Security are typically way to stupid to understand Infared let alone CCD camera sensitivity to IR.

    IT's fun. it also set's off movie "camera detectors" everytime.
