New York and California, to name a few.

But that's beside the point. YOU are allowed to use YOUR phone microphone if YOU want. And in that same vein, OTHERS are allowed to use THEIR built-in hands-free systems. You don't have to like it. But acting like a gatekeeper and soapboxing over it is just weird.
