In addition to artists, several venues have also committed to the cause by pledging not to employ facial recognition technology at their events. Among these venues are House of Yes in Brooklyn, the Lyric Hyperion in Los Angeles, and the renowned Black Cat in Washington D.C. In recent months, over 40 prominent music festivals, including Coachella and SXSW, have also vowed to cease the use of facial recognition technology.
