When I said that the PirateBox #badgelife badge wouldn't be available at DEF CON, that wasn't quite true. There is *one*. It's available at the @dcfurs charity auction tomorrow. It's a rev2 prototype... 🧵

🌟Come get your hands on some PCBs and learn how to dump firmware off of real devices! Who knows what you will find @defcon 🔍☠️

Not-so-great PirateBox Badge announcement:
Due to RF gremlins and competing responsibilities, the badges won't be available at DEF CON this year. (1/3)
As much as I hate the idea of disappointing people by delaying the badge, I hate the idea of giving people a disappointing badge a *lot* more. So, I'm delaying release until the badges are properly ready. (2/3)
Quick reminder that updates for the PirateBox badge are generally posted at Bogon(at)defcon(dot)social before they're posted here. There's no guarantee that posts will continue here since some colossal melon keeps ruining everything.

PCBs for the next (and hopefully final) prototype round of PirateBox #badgelife badges arrived, so we're cooking up some crimes on the griddle.
For anyone who's confused because @spux's @defcon #badgelife insert SVG template has the wrong scale in Inkscape, it's because Adobe. Instead of just using the inch units built in to the SVG standard, Adobe Illustrator goes the unhinged route and applies a DPI to SVG.

📢 Introducing the Embedded Systems Village! 🌐💻
Calling all tech enthusiasts and security researchers! We're thrilled to announce the launch of the Embedded Systems Village, where hardware and software meet to tackle exciting challenges. 🛠💡
I finally got around to working on a little #badgelife project that’s been rattling around in my braincase for a while. The premise is simple - slap an OpenWRT module on a board, add enough components to make a fully functional wifi router, and throw a Pirate Box app on it.
There have been a few fuckups so far, but nothing too critical. Probably. The differential and impedance controlled traces seem to be fine though, so that’s nice.
Still not sure what end-game looks like, but hopefully there’ll be a batch done in time for @defcon. We’ll see ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
