Presenters:

  • Barry Wels / The Key as Barry "The Key" Wels
    Barry "The Key" Wels has many passions. Lockpicking, safecracking, voice encryption, radio monitoring, and bug sweeping (TSCM) are a few of them. He spends most of his time on the Cryptophone project (http://www.cryptophone.de/) and on Toool, the Dutch lockpick sportgroup he is chairman of (http://www.toool.nl/).
  • Bernie S.
    Bernie S. has been hacking computers, phones, radios, and the authorities for over 25 years - sometimes pushing the envelope too far. In 1995 he was imprisoned for one and a half years by the Secret Service for possessing hardware and software they said had the potential for abuse. Later the U.S. government admitted "there were no victims in the offense" and that they were more concerned about his exposing their covert activities. Bernie continues to investigate and report on communications technologies and government activities.
