31C3 Title, no sound
Alright, welcome! It's great to be here!
So many people, although it is very late. I've been told, that this is the prime time.
That is awesome, at 11 p.m. I'm David, I'm a Computer Scientist from Bonn.
And we just can start with the things that happened so far at the congress.
If you happened to be here at the congress or watched sessions on stream - welcome again
to the colleagues on the internet - then there will be always devices that one
does not like so much to use. [Laughter]
Who participated in the sessions of Tobias Engel and Karsten Nohl, does indeed use
his mobile phone less confident. And who was with starbug afterwards, will
not like to use iris scanners or finger print scanners anymore and may use gloves
more frequently now. So here a little disclaimer:
If someone has an intimate relation to his photocopier
and tends to keep it like that, should refrain from participating this session.
We will do three things during this session. First of all we will
get to know one of most prevalent and dangerous bugs of the last years.
Secondly, we will comprehend the bug. That is in a manner
nerds and muggels will understand. And last but not least, for the activists
among us - may be some present here - we will deduct some rules
that may apply to a single person that will handle a powerful opponent,
just like a global player. But in your case
it can be something completely different. That's why I will describe precisely
how this dispute evolved over time.
