NYS legislators have proposed a bill to block Madison Square Garden Entertainment from blocking its legal enemies from attending events at venues.
“MSG’s use of facial recognition technology to retaliate against employees of law firms engaged in litigation against them is deeply concerning,” state Senate Finance Chair Liz Krueger said Monday.
The bill would expand an existing state law barring “wrongful refusal of admission” to include sporting events. MSG CEO James Dolan has banned lawyers tied to litigation against the company from attending events at venues like the famous Garden.“MSG claims they deploy biometric technology for the benefit of public safety when they remove sports fans from the Garden,” said state Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal. “This is absurd given that in at least four reported cases, the patrons who were booted from their venues posed no security threat.
“That’s dystopian. How would you know if other corporate leaders won’t start using this? How do we know if they are already using it? Come on,” Simone told The Post.
