What's to stop a really major act (e.g. Taylor Swift) from performing in venues that are not controlled by Ticketmaster, or just setting up a parallel company? by havereddit
Agree but I haven’t been buying tix in protest and it looks to have no effect. It will take more than hoping people will boycott for things to change. The problem is so big it will require government intervention.

Reply to LPT Request: how to overcome Imposter Syndrome at work? How have you dealt with it? by ladladladz
I struggled really badly with imposter syndrome since I’m a woman in a male-dominated field. It just took some time and realizing that actually I know a lot more than the average man about my field. I recognized that the people I look up to also don’t have all the answers and we all have something to learn. You have to start somewhere, you’re not an imposter!

That is true, but what would it take to pull off a boycott of that scale? I bet most people value entertainment now over the slight possibility of future change. How do you get so many people to go against their own self interest?
