[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know of someone who broke it. That school put the word out and other schools revoked their offers. Kid did their first year at the local community college. [/quote]

Didn't happen.  No way the colleges are organized enough or willing to spend the time to contact the other schools.  [/quote]
Oh, but it did happen and DOJ opened an investigation a few years ago. Probably nothing happening with DOJ at this point, but the colleges were warned.

[quote]dean of admission and financial aid at Amherst College — in a 2016 U.S. & World News Report article titled

“[Fretwell] says her school and about 30 other colleges share lists of students admitted through early decision,” that article reads. “And Fretwell says she’d likely also share the names of students who were admitted via early decision, but who are not attending for financial aid and other reasons.”[/quote][/quote]

Allocating customers and not competing for customers are textbook anti trust violations. Those cases would be far easier than trying to argue about installed software with search engine preferences. Any one want to bet on whether or not they still share information? [/quote]

See my post below (9:26). They are still sharing information. The DOJ closed the investigation.[/quote]
