DEFCON.social is a place for hackers, researchers, artists, infosec, cyberpunks & those interested in the intersection of technology and society.

DEFCON.social provides for open discussion where different viewpoints are welcome. It’s not about how you look or how hard you meme but what’s in your mind, your ideas, and how you present yourself that matters.

We are a community where you can explore serious issues, ask dumb questions, tell the world what's on your mind and make friends along the way.

Please Note: - We have a strict Code of Conduct, insulting or harassing others is unacceptable. - We have a "No Nazi" policy where supremacist, intolerance, and edge lord behavior is unacceptable. - You must be at least 13 years old to create an account (US COPA, CCPA, UK AADC, etc.)

ABUSE / HARASSMENT: If you are being harassed, please report the user using the "…" button and then "Report." Moderators may take any action they deem appropriate, such as a warning or an expulsion.

When reporting accounts, please include posts that show rule-breaking behavior, when applicable. If there is any additional context that might help make a decision, please also include it in the comment.

WARNING: If your account gets suspended (“Banned”) for violating our rules we WILL NOT reactivate your account so you can move your profile to another instance. Bad behavior that leads to a ban should not be rewarded by making it easy for you to move to another instance with minimal consequences.
