No longer common since the ubiquity of mobile phones. You usually still can't bring any cameras with interchangeable lenses (e.g. a DSLR), or a high quality audio recorder°, but IME the only shows that do anything to prevent all recording are stand-up comedy acts.

° jam bands still tend to allow these

I tape (audio) fairly openly at a lot of shows, most venues (or at least those who work for the venues) don't appear to care these days as long as it's not taking up space/getting in the way.

And a lot of artists are also pretty tolerant at this point of it. For example, The guy who runs the excellent (unofficial) live archive for NIN, got an invite to meet the band rather than a cease & desist.

(Edited for wording).

The bans became untenable in all countries when phones with cameras became ubiquitous.

Not in places where people actually are civic minded and respect rules, e.g., japan, corea…

Cultures are different. In my country it's common courtesy to mind your own business and don't tell other people what to do. Personal freedom versus conformity. If you're the kind of person who gets annoyed easily at others instead of ignoring them as we are taught you won't last 5 minutes.

The Supreme Court of the U.S. has maintained an absolute ban on photography down to this very day.

Some venues would have you put your phone in a bag, lock it, and give it to you. It will be unlocked on your way out.

I saw chapelle in NYC years back (the before pandemic times), they really did this. You can hang onto your phone, its just locked in a neoprene type bag.. On the way out they have a device to open it (kind of like security tags on clothes..).
