Time to move out of Logan.
Look, it's not really discriminatory. Well it is a bit, but it is acceptable given the "public interest" in the provision of such policies, and would not be considered unusually onerous. You'd not likely succeed due to prior dealings and the fact that you've been aware of their policy for some time. The only recourse you have is to find a servo without the policy and deal exclusively with them, and hope they don't have shotgun behind the counter couple with a nervous cashier.
It's annoying, but not much practically that can be done, save get a helmet with inbuilt, fixed headphones/speakers like the BMW integrals, etc.
