Eh. He's got a point. There's absolutely no way this should be a criminal matter. Someone lost their fucking mind thinking that breaking a captcha is "hacking".

What do you mean more than it "really should be"? That's not how it works with any other commodity... if I could organize it and bought up all the apples and sold them to you for $5 each would that mean I should go to jail?

A civil issue or one for the competition board to sort out but not one for the criminal process.

Now that people know, there will be dozens of little guys pulling the same setup, and making it even worse for ticket buyers. If I were ticket-master I'd have hired them.

 

[Andrew Scherer]

I know its not criminal and its just business but I'm still sippin haterade

 

[GreeLee]

Hey, if any one of us would have stumbled onto such a gig, we'd be milking it for all it's worth.

 

[Floridabizguy]

I agree GreeLee, anybody would do it.

 

[Andrew Scherer]

that's true

Im impressed with the Euro that broke that damn ticketmaster captcha. Ticketmaster should hire that person for sure.

 

[thebigspender]

20 years for each charge, that's insane

 

[veneficus]

is that why i can never get bears tickets even 1 hour after they go on sale! Fuck These Brokers! I wanna see julius peppers smoke your quaterbacks for less than $400!

how do I download this program and hack ticketmaster?
Get back to me.

 

[papajohn56]

this is fucking stupid. it's no way a criminal case for "hacking", the only thing he could get hit with is scalping

 

[kingfish]

Ticketmaster already basically won a similar case and got $18 million from some guys breaking their captchas a few years ago

Your just pissed YOU didn't build the BOT they did! Since when is it illegal to have a bot do the work and PAY for the tickets?? It is not that they STOLE them... They never went into the system illegally and that is what hacking is!!! They did nothing but violate the TOS--- BAN THEM! LOL:2drinkspit:
