I might make an exception for conferences linked to professional standards bodies, which usually have special legal status, but they usually have detailed quasi-legal complaints procedures anyway.

My take is mostly that there should be proportionality between the degree and "officialness" of the sanction, and severity, and apparent standard of evidence of the allegation. Imprisoning people (or in some countries still, executing them) needs a bloody high burden of proof. Seeking civil compensation, a bit less so. Banning people from conferences feels rather further down the scale, and should indeed be considered the organisers right.

@stefanct @dzu @OliverCzulo @adfichter something like a crowdfunder or similar for a fighting fund for this particular issue would be great, IMO?

@apps thank you for trying! As a community I feel we're going to have to figure this out eventually I hope you manage to find an alternative acceptable way to solve the problem somehow.
