It may not be, but where did you get that number? The article (currently) says the data of 560 million ticket-purchasing customers was stolen. I don’t see anything about “venue rentals business” customers, nor about 1 billion customers of any kind.
I accidentally dropped the “half a” but the point stands. No company should have this sort of leverage over half a billion people. Capotalism creates concentration of power in a classic rich gets richer loop. The state is supposed squash them way before they get this osbcenely big.

I suspect they read the headline as “half of a billion users”.
