I really hate the way companies abuse the court system to get out of unfavorable deals. If you sold the ticket and didn't explicitly outline exceptions you can't then get mad just because someone is taking advantage of the very same benefits they paid for. The Vroom guy (great name btw) seems to have particularly gotten screwed because at the time he bought his ticket it wasn't illegal to resell seats. He never violated the contract he signed. It's also pretty questionable to call booking two seats and only using one to be fraud. What if he just didn't want a neighbor, or he was overweight and needed the extra room? Either way he technically paid for the seat so AA not being able sell the seat twice is not really his problem.

It's actually better for the airline, since they actually use less fuel.
Can we block the latimes.com from HN until it's available in the EU again?
Here's a copy:

Thanks!
However, this like the 7th time or so that I've tríed to read an latimes.com article linked from the HN front page and they have blocked everyone in Europe from reading it. Enough is enough.

The Outline link works just fine: https://outline.com/cdUx8n
"Just fine"
I just read the article in its entirety and Outline is missing something like 75% of the article's contents.

Only seems to show the first page for me.
Link unavailable from the EU.
Both subjects male, so why on earth did they fail to title it 'The Men Who Flew Too Much'?
