The annual
Chaos Communication Congress, will be held 27th to 30th december in
Berlin.
This year there will something very special, since internet live
streaming of events reached its limits last year, the Chaos
Computer Club folks managed to get a license for broadcasting
events in DVB-T. And they broadcast their selfmade DVB stream by
themselves with a selfmade
DVB-T transmitter, and all this for less than 1000 Euros.To be sure that noone gets disturbed they got a licensed fequency
and are allowed 5 Watts sending power, enough to cover direct eye
contact distance to Alexanderplatz in Berlin. Isn’t that great. I
guess a lot of TV station get pissed when they recalculate their
investment for their DVB equipment.

The agenda is still not final, but a major issue will be trust and
security, especially dedicated to voting machines, RFIDs, DRM,
DataMining, forensics, electronic passports, bluetooth, biometric,
console hacking, VoIP, Web2.0 and the end of traditional TV.
Be curious….
