I did end up getting her to apologize once she realized con staff would take it away, but I didn't want to totally ruin her convention just because her autism got the better of her. The same group approached me later at the con to try chatting me up, under some bizarre assumption that I wanted anything to do with underage fujoshits who hit me in the ass with the equivalent of a bat.

"Free hugs" signs were being used for solicitation. For some conventions, it was police issuing the ban instead of convention staff.
Also, people would get verbally aggressive when offering hugs if they were declined, and hug people without asking. Cons just didn't want to deal with it because it's pretty silly to dedicate security or a staffer to watching over someone offering free hugs just to make sure they aren't being aggressive.
