It sounds silly on its face but these things can have impacts. Say that a store bans the use of phones. Is this ordinance a defense against a discrimination suite brought by someone kicked out while using a translation or vision app? The store would say that it was simply acting in support of a local ordinance.

Obviously there’s discretion at play. No shopkeeper is going to kick out a mum who’s taking a call from her son who’s in trouble.
