The forth and final batch of videos is now up on Google Video as well. I finished it about a week ago. Here is the link to the final wrap up post. http://www.roysac.com/blog/2007/09/defcon-15-session-and-panel-videos.html p.s. check also the "additional resources" blog for some extra goodies. Kuza: I have no idea why the domain did not resolve for you. May I ask who your ISP is? The site is not hosted at a low-budget hosting provider. It's on a dedicated server in a special hosting facility at a company who does only hosting for its customers. The IP is only shared with a few other sites of mine, which have no offensive content or other junk on it that could have caused a black list or something of that sort. In case you did not notice.

Oh well, its resolving now that I've added the IP to my hosts file.

I'm just appreciative that someone like you takes the time to make these educational videos available. I look forward to seeing the other videos. No worries, you and I share the same opinion.

I am not a copyright lawyer, but a guy who is using common sense. I paid for the DVDs and looked at them. It does not state anywhere that unauthorized replication is prohibited or that all rights are reserved. Also, what is DefCon all about again? Raising awareness, find the problems and expose them that they will be fixed. You can't raise awareness behind closed doors so I am only following the spirit of DefCon. If it is just a commercial enterprise in reality and all fake on the outside, my apologies. The fake looked real to me ;) I also don't mind them selling the videos, but the price is IMO way too much. Look at Jason Scott, who was a presenter at the conference. He produced a documentary on 3 DVDs and sells it and made it available on Google Video under the creative commons licence at the same time. I bought the DVD set twice (the second one with Jason's autograph on it hehe). The price is fair and you get a nice DVD box and high quality and longer lasting DVDs for it. Who does not have the money to buy it, will not buy it, period. But those people should still get access to the content, if the claim was made that the content was produced for the people to raise awareness. Don't delete the comment. I might need it for my defence if somebody decides to send their lawyers after me for any reasons anyway ;) Cheers! Carsten aka Roy/SAC Hi Travis,
