Re:Why Is Booz Allen Renting Us Back Our Own National Parks? by ip26 on Sunday September 17, 2023 @10:28PM (#37551524)
It’s a pretty good website, but considering it’s replaced full-time humans arranging your reservations by hand for a fee of $0, I’m not seeing the fees as reasonable.

It feels a lot like economic rent, with Booz Allen positioning themselves between you and your land. You pay their fee not because the user experience was great, but because it’s the only way to camp at your favorite park.

You still have to pay for the reservation, even if a human did it
