They are curious and creative, and seek to understand how things work, especially complicated systems. Many hackers use technology as part of their quest for knowledge and enjoy sharing information about their findings with other people. Often, hackers are willing to exceed boundaries of expected behavior to better understand systems they are interested in. Curiosity remains one of the main motivations for hackers everywhere. " " It is important ... to step beyond prejudices, societal norms, and other perspectives that lead to disrespect for people and groups. Everyone is welcome at HOPE events, regardless of ... class ... religion, political beliefs ... education level ... and other aspects of who we are. In short: HOPE is a space for tolerance... " "educators, and other creative thinkers are invited." "Call for Participation..." Puke. " We encourage you to give workshops on a wide variety of diverse topics... Workshops ... include: ... Freedom of Information ... Covid ... education, and much more. " "Topics of Interest..." "Social engineering." "Ethical issues." "Law, politics and governance." "Health and well-being." "HOPE strongly values free speech and encourage talks that address hard topics." Yet apparently not hard topics in above called for range of technical political frauds plandemics teachers medical science holistic and related and others that certain classes of free speaking thinkers above might hold, even simply hackingly excellent presentations of technical data countering narratives, but whose voices are disfreed disencouraged and banned during times when such counters are most needed, since many of those talkers would never meet oppressive dictat... " Do I need to be vaccinated against COVID-19? Yes, that is required by us " Quite frankly, this is fucking ridiculous, even on its own. For a bunch of supposedly highly intelligent independent thinking well read investigative researchers fact knowledge and freedom seekers yet perhaps few left now of anti-authoritarian pro-anarchs/liberts/voluns etc, this bizarre position also excluding and discriminating against say 36% of their own global and potential kind, and the cancellation of Freedom of Speech, among other curious positions taken by many conferences in recent years, have been noted and will be remembered by many as being particularly troubling disheartening and suspect changes, the sources purveyors enforcers of such changes perhaps rightly logged as future bewares and/or themes parties and entities to counter. And of course obviously their State ordered Corona to not attack people without masks as of given date, Corona complied, and everyone was freed from masks. Meanwhile HOPE spews State's medical and faux protection BS that vaxxed never catch, transmit, get sick or die from Corona, thus by HOPE's order StJohns is magically sterilized. Lulz. Is all this really the sort of hope and teaching that you monkeys depicted on hope.net frontpage should be reaching out and up to?!?! Good thing is that everyone is free to create new conferences, and some will be founded in protest and/or fork as is the norm. After decades of the same conferences, formats, organizers, agents, lies, traps, spies, whores, sluts, deals, products, participants, bugs, indoctrination, propaganda, media, pomp, statecraft and apologists, cameras, topics, locations, fees, rules, partiers, etc... there is lots of room for new ideas and hope for next generations and freedom. When HOPE is lost, it's time to establish new hope elsewhere.
