I was a big fan of what the Cure did, they played our town and they did not allow any tickets to be resold for anything above what they originally went for.
Non-transferable I think? But you could resell them via ticketmaster maybe for facevalue?
It was amazing, we sat on the ticketmaster page, refreshed over the course of a day and we got 8th row for I believe $75 - it was an amazing concert, and being able to pay a reasonable price for tickets like that was amazing.
It seems baked into the concept of "reselling can't be done at a higher value" that transfers would have to be limited to a platform where that sort of thing is prevented. For example, if the reselling market is just "add your ticket to the pool for people to buy, and if someone does, they get the ticket and you get the money", there's no way for the sellers to contact the buyers, so I'm not sure how you'd envision an out-of-band payment occurring.
Basically Meta wants age verification done by devices, the device makers (apple, google) want it on the platform, two sides who don't want the responsibility. On the other side are hundreds of billions invested in companies that offer age verification to websites (persona, etc.). All of these monied interests generate billions into lobbying/corruption efforts that drive all the legislation across the western liberal "democracies" rn.
Or you hire a team of specialists for the language you want. Perhaps niche languages should have fine-tuned LLMs in the same way.
