2025-01-08
Marc Rogers, DEF CON's head of security, is facing tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills after a neck injury left him temporarily quadriplegic. Initially experiencing minor symptoms, delayed MRI scans due to insurance issues worsened his condition. He underwent emergency surgery and is now recovering. Despite the substantial medical costs, he's partially regained function and continues his cybersecurity work. Friends have launched a fundraiser to help cover the expenses.
