Yes Men to keynote this summer's Hackers on Planet Earth conference in NYC


2600 Magazine's Emmanuel Goldstein writes, "One of the keynote addresses at this year's HOPE conference (July 13-15, NYC) will be given by The Yes Men. They're a natural fit at the biennial hacker conference which will be featuring highly technical along with socially relevant talks. The Yes Men have done a great deal to challenge the system and publicize injustice through the art of social engineering over the years, fooling the mass media into believing they represented the World Trade Organization, Dow Chemical, and the United States Chamber of Commerce, and more. Their words at HOPE ought to give a lot of people ideas on how they might be able to change the world."
