What we’re about
We're the FXBG Hackers meetup group.
Note: Not all members RSVP via Meetup, so RSVP numbers don't always reflect actual group size.
Fredericksburg, VA - FXBG Hackers
1st Wednesday of Every Month!
https://fxbghackers.com
All are welcome:
White Hat, Black Hat, Gray Hat
N00b, 1337, Obso1337
Hacktivist, Corporate, Fed, Govt, Mil, Hobbyist
Meetups begin with firetalks - short 10 minute discussions on hacking and hacking adjacent topics. We apply a very broad definition of hacking - taking something and utilizing it beyond its intended means. Afterwards, we chill, socialize, and play arcade games.
Note: We do not advocate illegal activities. If you're discussing bypassing computer security, you either have permission to do so or are utilizing your own equipment in a lab environment.
If it's your first time here - chill, relax, enjoy and just hang out.
Otherwise, hop up and give a fire talk.
Hack the Planet.

Note of FireTalks:
If it's your first time here - chill, relax, enjoy and hang out.
Otherwise, hop up and give a fire talk.
Fire talks are short talks around a topic generally related to hacking. Talks last roughly 10 minutes or less, with 5 minutes of discussion afterward. Be as formal or informal as you like. Slides, demos, and media are encouraged but not required. If you're unsure what to talk about or have worries about presenting, ask one of the organizers for help. We're here for you.
We apply a very broad definition of hacking - taking something and utilizing it beyond its intended means.
Note: We do not advocate illegal activities. If you're discussing bypassing computer security, you have permission to do so or are utilizing your equipment in a lab environment.
