State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman announced Thursday that he would propose legislation in Albany to address the rampant illegal use of automated software, or "bots," to purchase tickets to popular concerts, sporting events, and other live performances. The bill draws on findings from the Office of the Attorney General’s multi-year investigation into the difficulties state consumers face getting access to tickets to popular cultural events at face value. He believes the bill will give fans a fairer shot at purchasing tickets to see their favorite performers.
