“Madison Square Garden has reportedly begun usin “Madison Square Garden has reportedly begun using facial recognition technology to identify and deny entry to its events and the State’s Attorney General Letitia James has questions. The issue began when MSG allegedly used facial recognition technology to identify and deny entry to a group of lawyers who are affiliated with law firms that represent clients in pending litigation related to MSG. Lawyers from as many as 90 law firms have allegedly been denied entry.” Read the rest of Rob Abruzzese’s “Letitia James looking into MSG’s facial recognition tech after lawyers banned,” which is linked in our bio.

Three 30-something friends in New York, with respective Neapolitan connections, opened their dream restaurant on 5th Avenue in Park Slope. The idea was to showcase their shared passion and expertise with both inventive Neapolitan cuisine and charismatic hospitality.” Read the rest of Andrew Cotto’s “Tutt’Appost: Where all is in place” article, which is linked in our bio.
