After the report about the Girl Scout mom getting booted from Radio City Music Hall, I spent the last two days reporting out the use of facial recognition technology by the Madison Square Garden empire to keep hundreds of lawyers that work for firms that have sued it from attending concerts, sporting events and shows. It is a radical use of the technology by a private company and I am truly shocked by how forthright MSG is about its real-world block list. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/22/nyregion/madison-square-garden-facial-recognition.html
Madison Square Garden Uses Facial Recognition to Ban Its Owner’s Enemies

MSG Entertainment, the owner of the arena and Radio City Music Hall, has put lawyers who represent people suing it on an “exclusion list” to keep them out of concerts and sporting events.

With that ‘notice’ they make people like Nicolette Landi sign:
What does it mean that they will take all necessary steps to enforce the notice?

What does ‘enforcement’ of the notice mean, other than not letting them into the venue (which they’re already doing)?

“Nicolette Landi went to 6 events at Madison Square Garden in October. Then her law firm put her photo up on its site. When she tried to attend a Mariah Carey concert last week, security guards pulled her aside, saying her face was on a watchlist. https://t.co/DAWGGp6x0I”
