It would really be best to stop using these medium.com links.<p>Doctorow does maintain his own domain where everything is posted:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pluralistic.net&#x2F;2022&#x2F;11&#x2F;30&#x2F;military-industrial-park-service&#x2F;#booz-allen" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pluralistic.net&#x2F;2022&#x2F;11&#x2F;30&#x2F;military-industrial-park-...</a><p>I like his stuff, and subscribe to the RSS feed, but on this particular topic, I felt like the comparison to ticketmaster was contrived.<p>Ticketmaster is a foul corp monopoly, but what Boos did was effectively privatize a public asset.<p>Which to me seems like a different sort of crime.
