Summary
A new federal lawsuit filed nearly two weeks ago shows that country music star Garth Brooks is not the first high-profile artist to deal with bot activity for a Kansas City concert. Brooks called off a third Kansas City concert scheduled for next weekend after bots disrupted ticket sales last week. The lawsuit, filed by the Federal Trade Commission in a California federal court, alleges a San Diego company, Reps & Co. Inc., deployed ticket buyers, mostly based in the Philippines, to buy tickets to Beyoncé's 2023 Renaissance Tour at Arrowhead Stadium.
