It used to be any businesses' business was it's own damn business.

That may be a good thing when the law is applied and enforced fairly but I doubt that will happen.

It's a long shot(cough) in consumer law but:
It could be related to 'steering' by a business if a certain majority culture is involved.
Suppressing one major venue or commerce outlet will deliberately push customers towards another venue.
