US regulators are investigating Ticketmaster's compliance with the BOTS Act, examining whether the company adequately prevents bots from illegally reselling tickets. Ticketmaster denies violating the Act, claiming it blocks millions of bots daily and believes the FTC misunderstands its policies. The investigation follows previous antitrust scrutiny of Live Nation and could result in significant penalties if violations are found.
