Have to say, it was fun! It’s a very small con, perhaps 100 people. There were some great presentations ranging in subjects from the McColo story (a co-location facility that housed a large number of servers used by people committing fraud and spamming).  The story included how people got them de-peered so they were disconnected from the internet and why it’s gone. TXS spoke on reverse engineering subjects, and some other talks that slip my mind at the moment. Sorry for the late update, but I had to say it was fun! Had hoped to make NotACon this year, but once  again missed it. Perhaps more locals will make Carolina Con next year?
