DEF CON In February 2022, Hadnagy was banned permanently from hacker conference DEF CON, where he operated a colocated event ("village"), for unspecified code of conduct violations, as announced in the organization's transparency report: "We received multiple CoC violation reports about a DEF CON Village leader, Chris Hadnagy of the SE Village. After conversations with the reporting parties and Chris, we are confident the severity of the transgressions merits a ban from DEF CON."In Hadnagy's response on his blog, he said that he disagrees with the ban, that had not been informed of the details of any allegations by DEF CON representatives, and that a person affiliated with DEF CON told him they were not related to sexual misconduct. BSides Cleveland In fall of 2021, BSides Cleveland included Hadnagy on the agenda of speakers for its June 2022 event. Leading up to the event, the organizer labeled Hadnagy's speaking slot as "special guest" instead of listing his name, so attendees and other speakers did not know he would be speaking. His talk was about cancel culture, which he had also presented at a different BSides event last year. After Hadnagy gave his presentation, several other speakers pulled out of the event, and attendees and other people in the information security community criticized the event for hiding his name. Some said that they would not have attended the event if they had known he would be a speaker.
