If you had to identify the eventgoer in advance for a non-transferable ticket, then she would have been banned for the same reason and no facial recognition would have been involved. Would that be okay, in some way this is not?
Are you asking me personally? Or to respond with a general
philosophical principle?
In either case no.
On the first count, no, because I don't believe in
"non-transferable" tickets for arts and entertainments. The holder
has every right to give or sell their purchased property to family or
friends and "non-transferable" instruments violate that first-sale
right.
On the second point, no, because the singular specific "okay" case
(even the tear-jerking one that saves poor fluffy dying from kitten
cancer) has no bearing on the profound but nebulous harms inflicted on
society by an essentially rotten technology (on a purely Utilitarian
principle)
