> Professional conferences generally have security that can deal with problems such as these.
Maybe psychiatric meetings have different arrangments, but at the professional conferences I've been to, nothing prevents an unregistered person from entering the back of a small workshop after it has begun. And nothing would prevent anyone from standing in the hallways around the meeting rooms snapping pictures; in fact this goes on.
Hotel security people could help if an unregistered person got very disruptive in a meeting; he/she could be physically removed if someone from the meeting went & got security personnel. By that time, the situation has already gone way too far.
