BOTS Act Enforcement
BOTS Act Enforcement in the music industry refers to the legal actions taken by authorities, primarily the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), to combat ticket scalping that utilizes automated bots. The Better Online Ticket Sales (BOTS) Act, enacted in 2016, outlaws the use of bots to circumvent ticket purchasing rules and security measures, aiming to prevent resellers from acquiring large quantities of tickets for popular events and reselling them at inflated prices.
