12The conference programme consists of more than 130 talks. It has been
13selected from more than 360 submissions for the first time this year by
14teams of subject-matter experts. Each  team was responsible for one of
15five tracks: Hardware & Making, Art & Beauty, Science & Engineering,
16Security & Safety and Politics, Ethics & Society. \[6\] Additionally, a
17number of further high-quality speakers were invited. Like in previous
18years, live video-streams of the talks will be available. \[0\] The
19lecture programme will be augmented by numerous workshops and offerings
20for young hackers. \[3\]

23One major topic of the conference will be the security of hard- and
24software. A special focus of the programme will of course be the
25disclosures by Edward Snowden and the surveillance systems build by the
26spy agencies and their lackeys in politics and industry, as well as
27countermeasures against them.

30The keynote of the 30C3 will be held in the evening of the 27th of
31December by the journalist Glenn Greenwald. Owing to his work with the
32Snowden documents we learned in 2013 more than ever before about the
33worldwide surveillance networks, the technology and the way of thinking
34of the snoopers.

37In addition to the extensive lecture and workshop programme a large
38number of – sometimes spectacular – hacking and art projects will take
39place at 30C3.  \[2\], \[4\], \[5\] Numerous open-source projects use
40the Congress to meet with their contributors and to get into contact
41with new people. To relax after the dense content programme during the
42day, at night well-known DJs and musicians will rock the 30C3 lounge.

45The internet connectivity of the 30C3 will be realized by a
46record-breaking 100 GBit link that has been mad possible by donations
47from ISPs and network equipment vendors. The 30C3 is a non-commercial
48event with a low entrance fee \[1\] that is only possible because of the
49tireless work of countless CCC-volunteers. We also would like to thank
50the City of Hamburg for its support.\
