Expect:
"Official Rules:
1. Eligibility: The Liberty Hackathon Contest (the “Contest”) is open only to contestants 18 years of age or older who are legal residents of the United States (“Entrants”). The Contest is subject to federal, state, and local laws and regulations and is void where prohibited by law."
It's only for US citizens.
- erichurkman 13y agoThat's not wholly unreasonable for something new. Drafting something that respects wider international law is difficult; there are age and parental restrictions in many countries, content restrictions in others, restrictive copyright laws in others.
- villek 13y agoTrue, but saying "Compete anywhere remotely in the world" on the page is misleading since it gives the impression anyone could participate.
- erichurkman 13y agoFair enough, I missed that originally. I seem to automatically skip header images, they are usually full of useless marketing messages that I scroll down a few ticks instinctually any time I see a full-width "hero" image. (Edited to correct Firefox's dictionary suggestion.)
