Ban the act of buying limited-supply products via bots and reselling them at inflated prices when people cannot purchase those products any other way, as so-called “scalpers” have bought them all.

I believe to fix this problem and not interfere with people’s rights, there should be a ban, and shops should either limit the amount of stock than can be bought from one account when stock is low or limit the amount of the said product going to the same address.
