Should Smartphones Be Banned from Dancefloors?

A new nightclub in Manchester, Amber's, is implementing a policy requiring patrons to cover their smartphone cameras with stickers to prioritize music and experience over social media documentation. This move, common in Berlin, has sparked debate about privacy versus the promotional benefits of social media. While some welcome the focus on music and atmosphere, others argue that documenting nights out is part of the modern clubbing experience. The policy reflects a broader discussion on the impact of smartphones on nightlife culture.
