The Private Data Dilemma: Madison Square Garden's Secret Surveillance State Madison Square Garden (MSG) has been secretly tracking celebrities, using its "talent" database to catalog their personal characteristics, including sexual orientation and racial identity.
This database assigns a "risk" score based on factors such as social media activity and online statements made by the celebrities. The implications of this practice are far reaching.
Celebrities like Phoebe Bridgers, Freddie Gibbs, and Geese's Emily Green have been marked as "LGBTQIA" in the database, raising questions about MSG's commitment to diversity and inclusion.
