The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.
And since we're entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we've distributed over $2 million to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.
If Ticketmaster had a spine/cared about people who bought tickets from them, they could've gone after them personally. But once again TM just rolls over and says that the probation and slight garnish on their overwhelming profit was good enough. I say treat these guys like hackers, they bypassed security and used bots and computer farms to order tickets.
They technically really didnt "steal" anything, the ticket companies and band still got their money. But they did use unethical practices to give themselves an advantage at buying tickets.
