The story itself answered that question when it said:

"The main goal from such technology is to curb unauthorized recordings of 
concerts, sports, movies, plays, etc."

If it works for sports, it will work outdoors, and could be used at any outdoor 
venue that a nefarious government wouldn't want "youtubed."

  Do you mean to say that it will only be used in theaters or that it only 
works in theaters? There is a significant difference, with deep potential 
ramifications on the use of portable recording devices for purposes other than 
illegal recordings.
