That depends on the delegates that are elected by the states, and on what those delegates intend to accomplish...

I can't believe that all 50 states intend to send disrupters to the Convention.

...and on how little they fear for safety of their families. Governments have an excellent track record in controlling a well defined, small group of people.

That is an extremist argument that supposes that the federal government will take hostage the families of Convention delegates as coercive leverage. Is that really what you think is capable from Boehner, McConnell, McCain, Hatch, Graham, et. al.?

They decide nothing. But will "the system" try to disrupt the Convention? That depends only on how dangerous it ends up to be. You can bet that there will be attempts to sabotage and/or control the process at every stage. The history of 20th century shows that governments are capable of much worse acts than arranging for a few hundred phone calls.
