Hello from Las Vegas! Yesterday (ed: uh, last week, my bad) I gave a talk at DefCon 22 entitled ‘Practical Aerial Hacking & Surveillance‘. If you missed the talk the slides are available here. Also, I’m releasing a paper I wrote as part of the talk entitled ‘Digital Terrestrial Tracking: The Future of Surveillance‘, click here to download it.
Whiskey shot!

I’ll update this post to point to the DefCon video once they’re released. In the meantime, the specifications of my custom quadcopter I had on stage are below:
