Not really, look at the schedule for 34c3. Much more interesting things and less politics. And it also has felt more and more forced in the last couple years

Looking at the 34c3 Fahrplan, like a solid third of the talks are explicitly about politics

I don't get your point

The event that starts with "die Sprache der überwacher"

That's non political?

  • Its regardlessly still computer-adjacent, not like the talk linked from 39c3

    Ok let me rephrase then if you didn’t understand my point: Its getting too filled with politics that don’t have anything to do with computers

    • How is it computer adjacent, keep in mind, it's a talk about how the media communicates things...

      Surveillance was the political topic of 2020, so there was quite a few talks about that, migration is the political topic 2025, so there are a lot of talks about that

      There are also other unrelated things which do not have a lot to do with computers, like "all creatures welcome".
