#defcon28 has entered Safe Mode.
The #DEFCONiscanceled meme has crossed over into real life, courtesy of #COVID19. In early March we had hopes that things would be stable by August. That is no longer realistic.
Currently there’s no way to gather everyone together and keep them safe, so @thedarktangent has decided to cancel the in-person event.

We will try an on-line experiment this year - DEF CON Safe Mode. Please read DT's thoughts on the situation here [ ]
Then head over to the #DEFCONForums [forum.defcon.org] to get involved. The #DEFCONSafeMode FAQ that should help to answer common questions.
We wish there was better news, but we hackers are a resilient bunch. Stay healthy, stay safe and stay in touch so we can all be together virtually this August 6-9 and again for DEF CON 29 in person.
The @thedarktangent blog post on the #defconiscancelled situation is here:

Please read and share. Thank you. #defconlovesyou #StaySafe
