I’ll ignore how dumb the rest of this take is but she did bring her own private security. Her own security guy is the one who got the perpetrator off of her, while event security did nothing and also failed at securing the meet and greet properly in the first place.
In general con security seems to be terrible almost across the board. Absolutely not equipped for how big internet personalities have gotten, it’s mostly in “we’re just a bunch of nerds having our niche event” mode even for events where that’s decidedly no longer the case. And for twitchcon that’s not even the tiniest bit of an excuse since it’s organized by one of the largest tech companies in the world.
