Def Con hacker annual meeting request not to participate in the federal government, which is the first time in 21 years to mention meeting this requirement, said Snowden information disclosed on the federal government to make some hackers presence of the person feel uncomfortable.
"If the federal government does not participate in this year's Def Con conference, good for everyone." Def Con founder Jeff Moss at the meeting on Wednesday night, said in a statement posted on the website.
August 2 began meeting in Las Vegas expected to have over 15,000 hackers, researchers, corporate security experts, privacy advocates and artists who attend.
Moss is the U.S. Department of Homeland Security network security consultant, he told Reuters that such a decision is not easy, but he thinks Def Con takes time to accept the recent disclosures about the U.S. surveillance practices.
"Everyone in the digestion of the federal government over the past 10 years to understand and reach a compromise thing. (To us) some time and a certain distance is beneficial, especially when feeling a bit emotional time." Moss said.
He said the move is not to create tension, but defuse tensions. "We will not catch a ghost or check the identity and the people kicked out."
Hacker conference held this past attracted the CIA (CIA), National Security Agency (NSA), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), President of the Secret Service and military officials in the various departments involved.
Last year, the U.S. National Security Agency Keith Alexander will be published at the conference keynote address. Def Con conference is the world's largest annual hacker conference.
