06-28, 12:00–12:20 (America/Los_Angeles), Volleyball Court - NightMrkt After Dark

Flipper Zero - who hasn’t seen it in the news in the past year?. Depending on what one reads, it could be an annoying prank device, a deadly hacking appliance, or something in between. What is FUD, and what is true? Is there some utility to this little gadget? What are my chances of going directly to jail (straight to jail!)?!

We attempt to provide a no-nonsense primer on what the Flipper is, isn’t, and what can be done to help people explore the wonderful world of RF and consumer electronics. Ever wondered how your hotel key works? Want to see how that weird remote control functions? The Flipper is your extremely portable gateway to the world!


This session will provide a primer for all the people who have bought a flipper zero and have it gathering dust in their drawer (or have wanted to buy one to gather dust in their drawer). Attendees should come away with a practical methodology of assessing personal risk and curiosity of the RF world around them.
