    The FTC holds that Live Nation has enabled an exploitative aftermarket in oversights and consumer deception throughout its business model, profiting at every step of the resale process. “When reselling tickets brokers purchased from Ticketmaster,” the FTC’s complaint alleges, “Defendants can ‘triple dip’ on fees, collecting fees from: (1) brokers when they purchase the tickets on the primary market, (2) brokers, again, when Ticketmaster sells their tickets on Ticketmaster’s secondary market, and, finally, (3) consumers who purchase tickets from Ticketmaster on its secondary market.”

  • "Citizens will be on their best behavior because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that's going on," Ellison said, describing what he sees as the benefits from automated oversight from AI and automated alerts for when crime takes place. "We're going to have supervision," he continued. "Every police officer is going to be supervised at all times, and if there's a problem, AI will report the problem and report it to the appropriate person."

  • Picture yourself trying to catch up with a car going thirty mph, it's getting away, then they slow to twenty.
