What does "physically authenticate people" mean here? Show that they

we'll probably never know. do you know which particular parts of your
traffic at&t gives to the nsa? modern police states are subtle.
You can however helpfully self-identify to them by logging into facebook.
the host provides terminal room security, not net ops.
People with ietf ops clue wrote the following once upon a time which I
think goes a lot way towards setting our expectations for terminal room

6.1 Physical Security
Physical security is difficult, with attendees walking in and out
with laptops and other gear at all hours. The guards SHOULD be
told to expect strange things, but to not let large equipment
walk out without a green badge. Equipment has been "lost" in the
past just before, during, or just after an IETF.
