You are clearly dealing with a Google astroturf drone. Has a vested interest in the idea that monopolies aren't so bad, MS wasn't punished, so Google won't be either, shut up and take it. Such a weird choice on Google's part to support such a thing.

I thought these Turkey earthquakes were also only a 9 on the scale

Another option is buying tickets online. Many states offer that and eliminates much of the issues with physical tickets that are essentially bearer documents.
In Pennsylvania, to buy on-line lottery, one needs to register an account and all purchases are in the name of the account holder. Much better and safer than physical tickets.
Seems eventually, lotteries will more aggressively tout safety as another reason to buy big jackpot games on-line. Plus, lotteries benefit too by not having to pay out sales commissions to retailers.
Hopefully the CA Lottery handles this promptly, because there are some lottery players who avoid buying Powerball / Mega Million tickets when jackpots get unusually high for just this reason.

I'd like to take a peek at the financials of the organizers; especially the far left wing person that set it up. I'm all about free speech in any country, but the 9,999 sheeple that are in tow on these talking points should be confident on who's selling them before taking a stand.

There was a big mega millions winner by me once and they said which gas station it was sold at. The very next day some woman is out there on the news claiming she bought the ticket at that gas station but she lost it there before she left. (Sure, Jan) For a week people crawled all over that gas station looking for it. Then the actual winner claimed the prize. This crazy liar tried to create a narrative so when the actual winner came forward she could claim it was her missing ticket. It didn’t work but it was funny seeing all those people there looking in bushes, in trash cans

You can Google this exact same question and get much more thorough answers than on Reddit.

People used to hand their tickets to am attendant to check.
"Oh, you won $10."
The next day, you're watching the news. "Gas station attendant won 30 million."
