chaos communication congress, covid, ableism
@KAOS@dragonscave.space As far as I could tell, it was widely believed in all sorts of hacker circles that Congress *would* take place by default, and that a cancellation would be an anomaly rather than a 50/50 chance. And this is also what the orga communication implied: https://www.ccc.de/en/updates/2022/37-chaos-communication-congress-in-hamburg

@KAOS@dragonscave.space Also more generally, communication from orga was really lacking here IMO:
- When could we expect a decision?
- How are vulnerable people included in the decisionmaking around COVID safety?
- Will the decision even be public *before* ticket sales start, so that those who need to be more careful don't miss out on a (scarce) ticket?
None of those questions seemed to be answered, and that led to a situation where everybody is in the dark, and so when evidence appears that safety measures are not being considered, then that pretty much leaves this sort of thread as the only remaining option to try and ensure sufficient safety... especially considering how vulnerable folks have been passed by in so many other situations already
