Was watching a youtube video (about Ticketmaster bots) and got to the technical part at 09:35. This details how the ticketmaster scalp bots get around captcha requests by not using data servers.
Essentially they are buying access to personal internet routers all over the world. This is typically through users using free vpn services.
I had no idea this was a thing.
I have never heard this talked about, but also know that if you are using a “free” service, YOU are the product.
As a new user of PIA (segue to our sponsor thanks ltt) I googled it to make sure they didn’t use P2P vpn bullshit. They don’t , from what I can tell.
Thoughts ?
