A bipartisan bill was introduced in the U.S. Congress aimed at addressing the issue of ticket scalping and the use of bots in the secondary ticket market. The proposed legislation seeks to outlaw the use of automated bots that are employed by resellers to snap up large quantities of tickets as soon as they go on sale, allowing them to profit by marking up prices significantly. The bill is designed to strengthen consumer protections and ensure a fairer process for fans purchasing tickets for live events. This push comes after ongoing complaints about unfair pricing and the lack of transparency in ticket sales, with both Democrats and Republicans acknowledging the need for stricter regulations to curb the misuse of technology in the ticketing industry.
