The Whitehats, Blackhat conference in Vegas?

lately i’ve been wondering about this so called “Blackhat” conference which is
talking place once in every couple of years.
this year the conference took place in Vegas at the 2-7 of August.
and of course as expected all the big names of the security industry showed up,
but whats really bothering me is that this conference is no more the land of the hackers
those individuals who came because of their thirst for knowledge the desire to understand
and research technology on all of its aspects and to share/exchange their knowledge.
the truth is that this kind of conferences are filled with people
with the desire to make more money and drive more attention to their sponsering
company/product. this is no more the hackers blackhat conference but a whitehat
conference filled with security researchers.
