Calling all Hackers, Phreakers and Technology lovers in the Kildare / Dublin Area. Irelands first Defcon Group DC35304 has just been setup and is looking for members.

For those who don’t know, a Defcon Group is a meeting place for like minds. Anyone with an interest in technology is welcome. There will be talks on different topics, games and discussions on virtually everything from the latest Linux kernel to hacking coke machines. There will also be a tech support section of the meeting, where if you are having problems with, for example, installing a driver or writing a kernel module we will help as much as we can.

You don’t have to be a genius, or hold a degree to join. Just simply have an open mind and a willingness to learn new tricks. There are no age limits as knowledge knows no limits. You can be 12 or a 112. It doesn’t matter.

I know the word hacker tends to scary some people, but we use the 1960’s definition of the word: “a hacker is someone who enjoys solving problems and taking technology to its limits”. This is not a gathering of criminals plotting to take over the world. (If it was, do you think we would of posted this?)

Anyone interested should email cyberax262@gmail.comfor more details.

The first meeting place hasn’t been decided as we are still recruiting members, but it most likely will be in Maynooth, due to the amount of transport and access provided by train and bus.
