and from last year:

https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2024/fahrplan/talk/W...

In comparison, the only talk linked above was "die Sprache der überwacher", a talk about actual surveillance.

Not sure the number is up from last year (I think there are fewer O/T talks this year even) but there are many talks that have nothing to do with hacking even if some of them might pigue my interest, such as the following:

Then there are topics merely having "computer" in them like everything in this day and age but aren't about hacking, and it's disappointing because I know for a fact other talks had to make room for these:

and there are a couple more.

Not everything in "Hacker News" is on-topic either I guess.

The talks by e-celebs also don't bring in anything novel, like at all.

I think you're missing the ethos of the event in general, and the fact that you are pointing to tracks in the ethics track or the arts track in particular.

Complex data analytics of political relevant topics have nothing to with hacking? With source code and data available to play with?

I would love to know what you would think would be more fitting talks?
