Madison Square Garden owner James Dolan threatened to ban the sale of alcohol at an upcoming New York Rangers game — an idea he said was connected to the ongoing battle about his company’s use of facial recognition technology
"MSG instituted a straightforward policy that precludes attorneys pursuing active litigation against the company from attending events at our venues until that litigation is resolved," the company previously told NBC New York.pressed Madison Square Garden Entertainment about its reported use of facial recognition technology"MSG Entertainment cannot fight their legal battles in their own arenas," James said Wednesday in a release announcing her letter.
An attorney whose firm is in litigation with MSG Entertainment was barred from attending a Radio City Rockettes' show with her daughter and other Girl Scouts because the company's facial recognition technology knew where she worked. NBC New York's Sarah Wallace reports. That didn't stop MSG Entertainment from identifying and zeroing in on her just as she got into the lobby before the show the weekend after Thanksgiving. Security guards stepped in, and while her daughter, other members of the Girl Scout troop and their mothers got to go enjoy the show, Conlon wasn't allowed to do so.
"They knew my name before I told them. They knew the firm I was associated with before I told them. And they told me I was not allowed to be there," said Conlon.
