In August 2012, there was a dispute between science fiction convention Dragon*Con and the Backup Ribbon Project about distributing the ribbons — which allow people to identify themselves as willing to support someone experiencing harassment — at Dragon*Con. Dragon*Con cited concerns that harassers would use the ribbons as a false flag to attract victims.
