No. This is an example of reducing the freedom of some in order to increase the liberties of others.

The right to record is a human right.

> Such is the price of freedom.

I am confused again. How am I free if my own persona is up for grabs by a business?

You have the freedom to be outside and also record everything you perceive.

You can't deny others that freedom and expect to attain it yourself, too.

That you don't exercise that right is immaterial and has no bearing on whether I should be able to freely exercise that right as well.

But you are not a corporation?

Corporations are composed of individual human beings who are also exercising their universal rights in the course of involvement in that corporate entity .. will you start making a special class of humans that has those rights and can exercise them, and a class that can't based on their membership in a social group?

Then: Congratulations, you've become the very repressive thing you were resisting in the first place.

Yes, this is the price of freedom: in public, where you can express yourself, and exercise your universally granted rights to free expression (and thus recording) or not - without the expectation of being impinged upon by your peers - so too can others express themselves, and exercise their same universal rights.

Its a two way street and it belongs to the public.
