In December is congress time again: the Chaos Computer Club invites you to the 38th Chaos Communication Congress at the CCH in Hamburg under the motto ‘Illegal Instructions’.
There is a storm brewing. Political and legal efforts to prevent Europe from sliding into divided, unfriendly societies of surveillance and repression are becoming less and less effective and sustainable. So, it's time to return to good traditions: Technical resistance against surveillance, measurement, data snorkeling, and infiltration, is one of the necessary components. With this in mind, the 38th Chaos Communication Congress, under the motto ‘Illegal Instructions’, will place a stronger focus on how we can outwit misanthropic technologies through illegal instructions.
Like all previous congresses, 38C3 will be an international event that welcomes all democratically minded life forms and invites networking and productive cooperation. In addition to lectures, workshops and lightning talks, there will be an extensive art and cultural programme, and plenty of space for assemblies to explore how we can use illegal instructions to clog the digital capitalist surveillance machinery to make it come to a grinding halt.
