We’re on scene at HOPE Number Six, the annual hacker conference in New York starting today. HOPE, which stands for Hackers On Planet Earth, is a three-day conference featuring speakers on topics ranging from social responsibilities and building the big “Anti-Big Brother Database” to hacking everyday gadgets like the iPod.
Three notorious hackers — Mark ”Phiber Optik”, bernieS, and Kevin Mitnick — who all spent some time in jail, may swap prison stories on Saturday.
Reuters’ Nic Fulton is attending on Friday. Ken Li will be there on Saturday. Check out HOPE’s conference blog.
