And because this can never be said often enough, alas: if you are at WorldCon and someone harasses you, I volunteer to be your back-up. I will not say "Oh, that's just so-and-so," or "You should shoot him/punch him/kick him in the balls," or "If I'd have been there I would totally have shot him/punched him/kicked him in the balls." I will, however, escort you to a safe place, provide company in a public place, and/or help you find an appropriate person with whom to file a complaint.
