Well, I don't know what to tell you. There isn't anything published around this. But you can maybe find traces of the posters on social media.
They where an iteration of the "Birds doesn't exist..." posters which was a meme during that years CCC.
- dijit 4y agoThis is very new information to me and I followed the drama closely at the time as I have friends on both sides. I would appreciate a citation as nobody has mentioned anti-trans posters. What was mentioned is that there had been conflict the year before and that Vincent was told he wasn’t welcome, which was the root of the escalation.
- throwaway35c3 4y agoThere were threads in 4chan /g/ around 35c3. Hard to find the photos now, but "Trans aren't real girls wake up 35c3" post with the number "69115371" is in the thread: https://archive.ph/ki6Un https://archive.ph/ki6Un See other posts to get the impression. cock.li, /g/, 4chan joint assembly printed and spammed these posters and their logo (you can see it in the OP post thumbnail) all around and were explicitly told not to organize an assembly on 36c3. Regardless, Vincent Canfield decided to come to 36c3 and started conflicts somewhere around the Tor, GNUNet and some activist/political projects around there, then refused to get out when told to do so by orga and called the police.

- Foxboron 4y agoWell, the dead account has some links which I won't repost. Feel free to reach out over IRC or email if you want other/more links I guess. From what I gather is that the conflict around the website started at 35C3 with the posters and the general shitposting. It was pinned to the cock.li assembly and vc was then asked to not come back. Which they did 36C3 and resulted in the above video. Whether or not vc knew all of this, or was directly involved, I don't know.
