uid0gid0,

Anyone else remember when they tried the same thing in 1995 with Pearl Jam leading the charge?

WhatsThePoint,

Sadly the de-regulatory push since the 80s has taken much of the teeth from regulators. That and recent supreme court rulings and the overall business friendliness of the court makes anti-trust hard to pursuit by even the best intentioned regulators.

CaptainSpaceman,

Interesting considering May is when closing arguments happen for US v Google

Biden’s justice department is definitely an upgrade over the previous asshole’s.

This is how you win the 2024 election. Issues that can’t possibly become partisan.

Who among us doesn’t hate the rat fucks at live nation?

modifier,

I hope they remember to bring their teeth. Tired of the JD trying to gum these companies to death.

dylanmorgan,

The current people doing antitrust seem quite serious about breaking up monopolistic companies.

Woozythebear,

Can you list any examples of monopolies that have been broken up since Biden took office?

thisorthatorwhatever,

SCOTUS asks ‘why are you hurting such a fine company, don’t they have a right to sell tickets they way they want to, FREEDOM’.

afraid_of_zombies,

Only if Thomas gets a new boat

He’s definitely more of a motor coach guy.

John Oliver offered Thomas one but he refused.

StrawberryPigtails,

This is what happens when you mess with Taylor Swift.

randompasta,

Right? Deja vu, I remember the last time Ticketmaster got “in trouble”. Wash, rinse, repeat

twistypencil,

They got in terrible with the DOJ?

Different DOJ

Ledivin,

Yes. Almost every single antitrust suit brought by the DOJ has been successful.

Woozythebear,

Fines them 1 days worth of profit and tells them to stop isn’t really successful. That’s like me winning a civil suit but being out more money than I started with because of lawyer fees. Like yeah I won technically buy in the long run I lost.
