Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
brief visual and non-intrusive room inspections daily [...] Rooms with a privacy sign will be included as part of the inspection process
The contradictions in this phrasing are giving me a headache.
Also: this is DEF CON. The first mistake was telling them you were coming.
Most likely scenario they had former guests inebriated at some point and don't want to get sued.
More funny scenario is that the feds are desperate to make cases on people lol
have past attendees done something to make administration feel this is necessary?
Well I was once at a dinner there, where someone had to leave to bail out a friend who found an open traffic box and started playing. We’re not angels.
But honestly they should shut up about this and only search the rooms of suspected foreign agents, and with due process.

Wait, you didn't use his leg. You didn't need it?!
Naw, I just thought it would be funny.
How long until the CEO of this hotel gets an email to his personal email address containing a .zip of all of their customer's PII?
How long until the manager of this hotel gets exposed for putting cameras in the hotel room bathrooms?
With default user "Administrator", no password, and on a vlan accessible through the guest wifi.
They are gonna find sooooo many Bad Dragon dildos.
Take it from me, Do NOT google this…
Or do. I won't judge.

Too late. Had to wash my eyes with bleach after seeing all that. O.O
I think they started doing room checks in Vegas after that one guy sniped the music festival. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Las_Vegas_shooting
Las Vegas always has their SWAT team on standby during Defcon, in case they need to shoot the internet.
They must have very powerful rifles if they can reach all the way to England.
Hotel clerk: Sir, is that dangerous equipment you're setting up?
Hacker: It's just a WiFi coconut, a rubber duck, a flipper zero, and a few IMSI catchers.
Clerk: Okay then. So, carry on I guess?
“Sir, you dropped your honeypot!”
Would be great to find out that this wasn’t a real notice, someone just social-engineered hotel letterhead from three different hotels and printed up something inflammatory to catch the community’s attention.
