    Hacking, cracking, stolen passwords, and hijacked credit cards are the norm in the computer underground today, but what about 10 years from now? 20 years? What if the next frontier of hacking isn't computers at all, but the human brain?

    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
