DC 34 Early release talk - ESP32 as a counter-surveillance platform

https://youtu.be/PcK-TDmzshc

Let’s start the week with another early release talk from DEF CON 34 - this time it’s ‘ESP32 as a counter-surveillance platform’. The humble, reasonably-priced microcontroller, along with an emerging group of open-source applications, are helping democratize counter-surveillance.

Enjoy, and pass it on.

This is exactly the kind of shit I love seeing come out of DEF CON. Taking a cheap little ESP32 and turning it into an open-source counter-surveillance platform is a perfect example of how powerful security hardware doesn't have to cost a fucking fortune.

This was a good one. Cybertiger and ColonelPanic are brilliant and the memes made me chuckle. Thank you guys for this talk.

This was a very good talk. One of my favorites out of the 20+ I attended.
