Lawyer barred from Rockettes show after being caught by facial recognition tech

This is fascism.

I don't care what anybody says. It's fascism, end of story.

A woman was barred from a Rockettes show at Radio City Music Hall in New York because facial recognition technology in the lobby discovered that she happens to be a lawyer who works at a firm that filed a personal injury suit against a restaurant owned by the venue's parent company.

After being detected by this technology, guards approached her and ejected her instantly. She was with a Girl Scouts troop with her daughter. The rest of the group was allowed in.

A spokesperson for MSG Entertainment, which owns the venue, said the company's policy is to ban attorneys from firms involved in litigation against the company from attending events.

This policy is now resulting in a challenge to MSG's liquor license - because the license bars the venue from arbitrarily banning patrons.

What a mess America has become. What a mess.
