I belive Binney's talk[1] at Hope 9[2] came out before defcon[3] -- at any rate it is well worth a watch. It's been a while since I watched the defcon talk -- not sure how much repletion there is.
Does he mention there how he managed to blackmail the FBI to not prosecute him? ;-)
[3] According to wikipedia DEF CON 20 was held at the Rio Hotel & Casino July 26–29, 2012 -- according to the Hope 9 page, Hope 9 was 13th-15th of July the same year.
Waow his talk at Hope is really interesting, just from a technical/data science aspect, thanks for linking
It's cool the way he talks about solving technical problems on pen and paper. He says, "miracles don't happen on the computer, they happen in your mind", that is awesome!
Super smart guy!
Also, he mentions later on that Laura Poitras was at attendance at that talk, who of course went onto direct Citizenfour.
