Hackers On Planet Earth (HOPE) Conference

HOPE (Hackers On Planet Earth) is an annual conference for hackers, makers, and tech enthusiasts based in New York City.

#HOPE #Hacking Conference Banned From University Venue Over Apparent ‘Anti-Police Agenda’

The legendary hacker conference #HackersonPlanetEarth (HOPE) says that it has been “banned” from St. John’s University, the venue where it has held the last several HOPE conferences, because someone told the university the conference had an “anti-police agenda.”

We're happy to announce that @WBAI has gotten an injunction to stay the takeover of the station by @RadioPacifica. All programming will resume and the next court date is October 18th. Should be a good show this Wednesday! @HackerRadioShow
