The 20th anniversary edition of the Dutch outdoor technology and security conference. Hacking At Random is the latest installment in a series of non-profit technology conferences that have been taking place in the Netherlands since 1989. Its predecessors include What The Hack (2005), Hackers At Large (2001), Hacking In Progress (1997), Hacking at the End of the Universe (1993), and the Intergalactic Hacker Party (1989). The conference will feature an attractive program and international experts focusing on the internet, privacy, security, and open source and open standards for an audience of 2,500 people (with room for over 3,500), many of whom are decision-makers in IT policy. eLiberatica is the annual Open Source and Free Software conference initiated by a group of IT enthusiasts, which has now evolved into a growing community centered around the event (The eLiberatica Community). The goal of the event is to develop and sustain a healthy Free Software, Open Source, and Digital Civil Society movement, and to promote Free/Libre/Open-Source Software (FLOSS) business models.
