Bill overview
This bill, the "Event Online Ticket Sales Act," aims to protect consumers from fraudulent activity and unfair practices when buying tickets to entertainment events online. It prohibits using automated programs – like bots – to circumvent ticket purchasing limits or other sales restrictions. The law defines key terms related to ticket sales and establishes penalties for attempting to bypass security measures designed to manage demand. This legislation is tied to another bill, HB 4262, and will not take effect until both are passed.
