Watch talks from hacker conferences like a TV channel

In plain words

Hacker Talks is a platform that streams talks from hacker conferences in a continuous format similar to traditional television. Launched in 2011, it aggregates presentations from security and technology conferences, allowing viewers to discover and watch talks sequentially without having to search for individual videos. The service is designed for anyone interested in hacker culture, cybersecurity, and technology topics who prefers a passive viewing experience to curated conference content.
