We here at Disobey wish to encourage hacker culture and bring together like-minded individuals at a gathering to share information and to train the skills our adversaries use against us. Our goal is to foster a vibrant community of creators, makers and breakers.
We value encouragement, creativity and sharing and believe everyone can teach us something about the world.
Theme 2027: 10 years of unf*cking the system
Back in 2016, we threw together the first Disobey. Since then we have been h*cking things. Breaking sh*t. Doing st*ff. Leaving the system a little less f*cked.
In 2027, Disobey celebrates its 10th anniversary event. To honor the journey, the event is all about projects that were started, communities that were built, friends that were made, knowledge that was shared, things that were broken, things that were fixed. A lot has happened since we started. And we're not done yet. Not even close.
First time? Welcome! Been here before? Welcome back.

The Hackers Creed
(Adapted from, Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution, Steven Levy, 1984)
- You can create art and beauty on a computer
- Access to computers - and anything, which might teach you something about the way the world works should be unlimited and total. Always yield to the Hands-On imperative!
- All information should be free. Mistrust authority - promote decentralization.
- Hackers should be judged by their hacking, not bogus criteria such as degrees, age, race, gender or position
- Computers can change your life for the better
