Abusive BlizzCon attendees have been kicked out of the conference and stripped of their badges

Streamer Broximar tweeted through the occasion, saying “trolls who were typing horrible things into chat during BlizzCon demos were removed from the con and stripped of their badge,” occurring to say “Blizzard Security would just come up behind them with event security and escort them out the door.” Further down the thread, Broximar says Blizzard’s safety have been “monitoring chat logs at the convention.”

I like realizing trolls who have been typing horrible issues into chat throughout BlizzCon demos have been faraway from the con and stripped of their badge.

Players’ BlizzCon badges are tied to their BattleWeb accounts, so it’s fairly possible that their real-life behaviour may translate to some in-game punishments, or no less than an elevated chance that their accounts see some additional monitoring.
