So the professor in center of this event, Kangjie Lu[0] is also program comitee at IEEE S&P 2021.[1] I'm by no means an security expert nor a kernel contributor but considering he's program comitee, is these kind of practices a common place in Security/Privacy researchers? Does idea/practises like this get a pass on conference publishing regularly?
