Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Regulatory risk from biometric data bans could raise compliance costs, force changes to surveillance practices, and damage brand perception; near-term headlines may pressure MSGE shares if bills progress or hearings occur. Similar path-driven risks occurred when municipalities restricted facial recognition in venues, often causing modest multiple compression or elevated capex expectations.
