DEF CON 24 BioHacking Village - 0day for the Soul: Cybernetics And Theology
Channel: Tarah Wheeler
Date: 2017-02-23

As more and more people explore human-embedded technology such as subdermal RFID chips and magnetic implants, we must begin to engage with mainstream concerns about where humanity ends and technology begins. Where is the thin silicon line between humanity and cybernetics, and what do the major faiths of the world say regarding the possible diminution of the human soul in the presence of life-altering tech implants? Let’s explore the very real future choice between the hope of Nirvana in the afterlife, and the possibility of eternal Earthly existence as binary data.

I'm findable many other places, almost always as @Tarah, so feel free to reach out with your foreign policy, cyberwar, or information security questions!
