Have you ever been to Gamesco? You know how big the halls are? You know how many people are there? Do you expect a security guard every 10 meters? It’s physically impossible to guarantee that no criminal stuff will happen there.
Also to quote Gamescom:
Individual stand security can be booked separately, and exhibitors are advised to insure equipment against theft. This is noted in the terms and conditions of participation and the technical guidelines.
I’m more surprised by the mention of a few devs who lost their laptops which contained the only copy of their work… Is version control not a thing anymore?
