Actually they do have that right. They reserve the right to refuse service to anyone, as long as they aren't violating discrimination laws.

It's no different from the "no shoes, no shirt, no service" policies. They ALSO have the right to not enforce their policies. They ALSO have the right to create these policies as a way of encouraging people who were on the fence, to comply with their requests.

In other words -
Anyone who used to say "I won't wear a mask in a building UNLESS that store requires it" will now finally actually wear a mask in that building.

Again - it is doing what it was intended to do. Nothing is broken, no lies were told.
