I really appreciate all the hard work done by the #realworldcrypto steering committee and to AWS for stepping up to organise in Seattle in 2027, but I’m going to come out and say it: with the US as it now is, I think this choice of location is a mistake.
The 2027 Queer in Cryptography conference will not seek to colocate with the 2027 Real World Crypto conference.
Or any with conference held in the United States for the foreseeable future.
Time to head to LAX to go home! SCaLE 22x and Queer in Cryptography were great, but it's time for me to head back to my cave.
The first Queer in Cryptography conference finished up today!
Thank you to everybody, and especially our speakers, sponsors, panelists, and volunteers!
It was a wonderful experience; here's to another one soon!
Specifying details in an unambiguous fashion is also called... programming.
The Queer in Cryptography Conference kicks off today! Looking forward to seeing everybody there!
Only 24 hours until check-in for the Queer in Cryptography Conference begins-- looking forward to seeing everybody there!
Note for attendees!
The Queer in Cryptography Conference, being held at the RMSC, will wrap up at 5:00 PM.
If you're looking for a way to spend the rest of your Friday evening...
You're gonna be great!
Ooooh! Where's the talk?
There’s an active fascist takeover going on. Let’s check in with the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary committee to see how they’re resisting it.
Oh… oh I see. They’re trying to blow up Section 230 and open the floodgates for Trump to censor the Internet. Inspiring!
Hey, y'all! Our preliminary schedule is out on our website, cryptography.lgbt. Lots of good talks, and a few updates ahead.
If you're a queer government infosec professional dealing with... <gestures broadly>... and you want to come to Queer in Cryptography, we got your back. Send an email to queerincryptography@gmail.com, and we'll help you register for free.
Just a reminder to all: the Queer in Cryptography conference is coming up. Our keynote speaker will be none other than @soatok.bsky.social, who will provide what is certain to be a pun-riddled talk on key transparency.
Don't miss it! Get your tickets at Cryptography.lgbt. (DM for questions!)
Community members are hosting an informal gathering for trans and gender nonconforming folks. The goal of the event will be to share resources, build community, and explore how we can stay connected. For more information, contact Luca at lucajutsum@gmail.com
If this is upsetting and you feel like there's nothing we can do about this, remember that every community has groups of volunteers working and fighting to stop fossil fuel burning. In #ROC, look for Color (your town) Green. We in Color Fairport Green would be happy for more help!
Heads-up: we've extended the CFP deadline to January 20th! Check it out at cryptography.lgbt/call-for-pap...
Looking forward to seeing you in March!
