I searched through the schedule and didn't find State of the Onion. That's unfortunate.

Security Nightmares seems to be still going. That's always a good talk.

I think that's to avoid the whole Jakob Appelbaum kerfuffle. Both he and the rest of the TOR leadership were banned from giving talks this year.

That seems anathema to the stated aims of ccc.

Do you have a reference for this or personal knowledge?

It's stated here: http://www.taz.de/Der-Fall-Jacob-Appelbaum/!5361578/

No party should get the chance to defend their position.

Sadly just people I talked to. As I understand it, they felt that the technical stuff would be overshadowed by other stuff, and that things weren't clear enough, so instead of potentially picking a side, they refrained from both. Unfortunately this is all second or third hand, so take it witha grain of salt.
