Many of us go to conference to present their work, connect with like-minded individuals and possibly finding the new opportunity.
From the off-hand remarks from some conference organizers, their work carried some risk and could be thankless. They could face the following unpleasant things:
* A speaker got cancelled because of something they posted or said.
* Nasty people violated code of conduct.
* Conference organizers got verbal abuse and death threats because they rejected a speaker's proposal.
* Anything money related.
What are the other difficulties of the conference organizers?
