first thing i need to clarify, let's get it out of the way: this is not a joke and i seriously just found abt this and apparently it's really important.
₊✩‧₊˚౨ৎ˚₊✩‧₊so what's the deal, goldie??₊✩‧₊˚౨ৎ˚₊✩‧₊
well, funny ur asking me. i havent got the slightest clue either, so lets work together and find out what the heck is happening rn. in an article in Inc., it states, "It's rare that elected Democrats and Republicans cross the aisle, work together, and say: You know what? Let's stop fighting. Let's actually do something for the people we represent." according to inc., in 2022, a few swifties were trying to find tickets for the eras tour and found a presale access code. the swifties later found it that the codes didn't even work at all. ticketmaster's website kept failing and not working properly and they had to go thru "the great war" of ticketmaster just to get one ticket. (see pics below)
tickets would just go up and up, higher than $800 at times. tickets would be on the website for double their og (original) price. for example, if one ticket (for ONE literal person) cost $600 before, it would be $1200 a few minutes later.
the taylor swift act forbids using bots to try to buy more tickets than ur allowed to and many other things. IF people do do this and use the bots, they will get sued from $10,000 up to 100 grand. so, this law is good, right?
well, lets take a look at some more info. my source explains that "But reading it plainly, it looks to me like it only prohibits doing those two things if you use a bot to make them happen...a Taylor Swift fan who buys tickets for a show using the email address taylorswiftfanaz@gmail.com, and who then also buys tickets using the email address taylorswiftphoenixfan@gmail.com, wouldn't be breaking the law, unless they were using a bot to do it."
