"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

In that particular case, I'd suggest the seller was within their rights, honestly.
If the code wasn't obtained through any official means provided by the seller, then the seller has no responsibility to honour it, even it happens to 'work' in their checkout.
But the seller was obviously stupidly petty, and that feels pretty pathetic on their part.
They should have just sent your stuff, and taken the experience as notice to replace the voucher code that got leaked, so it doesn't happen again.
