As much as I dislike Ticketmaster and their practices, these data breaches affect real people for the rest of their lives.
Not a good situation and Ticketmaster needs to be held 100% accountable.
- Best you can realistically hope for is a check for $7.31 and free credit reports for a year till it happens again.
  
  Or the ranmsomers get enough money to make it no longer a viable business model...
  Want to screw customers with hidden fees? Hackers will screw Ticketmaster with hidden ransoms
  
  Some one needs to send the guy that did the hack this article.
- c\whooosh
  
  Fully aware of the sub I’m in, this did still happen though and I was referring to the comments
  Woooosh yourself lol
