background
People who love Internet security are people who love life. People who love security should be grateful to this era, and should be grateful to the developed information and media for allowing us to learn such a variety of security technologies; but at the same time, people who love security often also hate it. In this era, in the complex environment of the motherland, every day, a certain big hacker goes in to drink tea again, and a certain large e-commerce company is dragged into the library again, bombarding our ears all the time, and knocking on us at the same time. Alarm bells are ringing, and our behavior is imprisoned. We want to contribute to the cybersecurity of the motherland, but we are bound by various laws and regulations in a mess. Yes, we love life and freedom, but our choice of technology is very tired and unfree.
Cybersecurity technology ≠ disruption or black industry, we can only get better under the sun: we need to change!
FreeBuf hopes to bring a touch of positive energy to the domestic network security field and convey the true spirit of hackers and geeks.

Birth of FreeBuf
The beginning of autumn in 2010, the summer has just passed. The day is still so hot, a group of people who love safety started their dream chasing journey in an unknown idc in the United States.
