And you do. If they are for personal use, there is damned little (and that pretty much has to be posted) you can't take pictures of.
Stores can kick you out, but not public places.
I have a friend who has a business, specialised clothing, sold at faires. He bans photography in the booth. The funny thing is of course, that lots of his stuff is worn, and so gets shot. If I wanted to (which is what someone engaged in ind. espionage would do) I could take a lower light picture.
More to the point, apart from real competion (which would just buy one, or two, and use them to design similar product) no one who takes pictures can reproduce the stuff, unless they have a lot of talent, and the right equipment. It's silly.
