I'd really like to try this out! Or try out something built based on this paper.

> with no conditions at all

There are conditions on their site, and most sites.

Separately, if this information was public, then Google would have already incorporated it into its flight price notifications feature.

But again, fun idea. It's a good example of something individuals could create for themselves, and Southwest would likely never notice.

"The problem I see with their argument is that they are making this information public."

I love this idea! However, I think that unfortunately this argument doesn't hold up, and wouldn't in court. The information is available via their site, but that does not make it public.

The existence of the request itself (for the handshake) is most of the cost. If a client is on the other side of the world, hundreds of ms. Otherwise if you have servers everywhere, still probably 50-70ms for the handshake.

Edit: in my experience.

I will never use eBay again. It took over a month to get a refund for a product that was never shipped. In fact the transaction was somehow canceled by the seller within minutes of it being completed, but it still took a ton of work on my end to get the refund. What a shame
