HOPE Conference.  Nice turnout for H and BenC's cryptoparty.  Did a 90 minute spot on [http://radio.hope.net/ Radio Statler].  Partial recording at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvKmzMx5cd8.  ~20 people came to Jamie's (unscheduled) talk on CCTV camera mapping.  Had a talk with someone who was planning to organize a pirate party in SFO -- he had some interesting ideas for local organizing: advocate Free software to safe on licensing costs, and use public records requests to expose corruption.

21:13 < jokeefe> I counted about 20 people at the talk I gave on Sunday.
21:14 < jokeefe> I think it would be good to have a Pirate talk at the
        2018 HOPE
21:14 < srevilak> Yes, it was pretty good for an unscheduled talk

21:22 < jokeefe> looks fine to me
21:23 < srevilak> I read the entire judgement while riding home.
        Was slightly amused that the subjects of the tribunal were concerned
        about having to deal with the number of respondents.
21:23 < srevilak> There were only ~ 663 respondents.
21:24 < jokeefe> seriously?
21:24 < jokeefe> wow
21:25 < jokeefe> any other comments?
21:26 < Kendra> It looks ok to me
21:27 < jokeefe> ahoy
21:27 < MosesMPP> blah, ayoy all - rural internets a bummer

21:29 < srevilak> Actually, I should have said 663 claimants.  GCHQ is
        the respondent
21:30 < srevilak> Paragraph 40 is also interesting.  Appears that
        surveilling millions of people is not a burden, but responding to 663
        that are concerned about surveillance is a burden
21:30 < MosesMPP> love it so far
21:31 < srevilak> Thanks MosesMPP
21:32 < jokeefe> if no other comments, then you should be all set sending
