The hit back at the liquor license (which apparently requires admitting the general public, with only very specific exceptions) sounded pretty clever to me.

Clever but a clear sign that we have no protections on the books for anything like this.

That someone needs to resort to clever liquor license dispute adds to the dystopian feel of this story.

It's a hack in a domain in which I am not a hacker! Makes me feel vulnerable.

Yes, people in a vulnerable position routinely get hurt and just about every citizen is vulnerable to multiple someones.

It's unfortunate that certain professions have extremely high walls around them: police, doctors, lawyers, even certain elected officials and select other professions are very hard to displace, while their position grants them very easy tools to displace, manipulate, or harm others.

Hence the popcorn!

Facial Recognition

The woman's law firm is in active litigation with MSG Entertainment. She knows she's not allowed on the premises while the lawsuits are unresolved. They saw her and kicked her out.

But this is a controversy because Girl Scout Mom got spotted by facial recognition I guess. Not the fact that she was trespassing.

Last month MSG revoked the corporate suite leased by a law firm that was _actively suing them_. And they made the same big stink about how unfair it was that they can't go to Knicks games anymore.

So I get that this is true, but I don't understand why people are being so "Bob's your uncle" about it. I get that it's a policy but why do so many act like it doesn't deserve criticism?

Sure we can take that matter of fact approach, and she accepts. However MSG is now not allowed to have a liquor license as a matter of fact.

Nah MSG is still allowed to sell alcohol. But this woman is not allowed on the premises.

For now, yes. But they'll have to stop selling alcohol soon.
