Defending the Hacker Ethic At Black Hat 2015 | Fortinet Blog

This year’s Black Hat keynote speaker, Jennifer Granick, gave her talk to applause yesterday rather than the boos and/or skepticism that have greeted other recent speakers. In a nutshell, she delivered a powerful call to action to preserve the hacker ethic, keep the Internet open, and make way for innovation and the hands-on exploration she called tinkering. 
At the same time, she was clear that security is critical to this openness and to building safe places that respect and protect our privacy. It was a great message and interesting to hear with this audience, especially from a lawyer who built her reputation defending some of the country’s best-known hackers.
