At least one dance club in Australia is asking people to stop taking photos with a voluntary phone ban. What’s this all about?
There’s panic at the disco, but only if you bring a phone camera to the occasion. That’s because dance clubs in Australia are trying something from Europe, suggesting patrons don’t use their phone cameras, and even supplying a sticker to stop them from doing so.
Why is this happening, and is it indicative of a larger digital detox?
Pickr’s Leigh Stark joins 3AW’s Tony Moclair to talk about this, and why the rear camera phone ban doesn’t really prevent selfies on a night out.
