One of the core traits of all hackers is curiosity, the thirst for knowledge and new skills. But what does one do with that knowledge? Do they pursue money, power, or fame? Perhaps their motivations are more noble—or sinister. This month, we’re exploring the intersection of hacking and activism, where the lines between rebellion, resistance, and retribution blur. From Anonymous to whistleblowers, hacktivism has reshaped how we view both hacking and cybersecurity. Join us as we dive into the ethical gray areas, the tools, and the true impact of hacktivism. Whether you’re inspired, skeptical, or just curious, this meetup is for anyone who’s ever wondered if their skills could make a difference—or spark a revolution.

As always, MEMSEC is very n00b friendly and someone here can certainly answer whatever questions you may have!

This meetup is FREE and open to the public with Garibaldi's pizza!

Come and be part of this meetup where you can discuss and showcase your personal projects, regardless of whether they are completed or still a work in progress. Whether it's a school project, tutorial creation, or anything else, you're welcome to share. The aim is to practice discussing tech topics so that you can confidently demonstrate technical knowledge and excellent communication during interviews. Alternatively, you can simply join to applaud, mentor, and offer support to fellow participants.
