At what point does “dynamic pricing” become surveillance pricing or exploitation? Should companies be able to charge you differently from your neighbor?

'Surveillance pricing' is when companies use your data to charge you more. Your browsing. Your income. Your mouse movements. Data brokers sell it to corporations who want to find your "pain point," the highest price you'll pay. Surveillance pricing is wrong. I'll vote to ban it

Corporate greed is fueling price gouging and surveillance pricing. Companies are deciding YOU should pay more because of your search history, location or other personal data they've collected. I introduced the Stop Price Gouging in Grocery Stores Act to ban surveillance pricing.

Michigan Senator Mallory McMorrow reveals companies are using dynamic algorithmic pricing to charge Americans more based on your data She says this is even being used to increase rents - A $240 flight to Florida increased to $423 because you looked twice - Uber pricing doubled because phone battery was below 20% “Usually it's about 18 bucks, but oh, the app knows that your phone battery is low, so it's double the price. Companies are using algorithmic pricing tools to study your personal data and charge you exactly what they think you'll pay. This is called surveillance pricing, and it means that companies can charge you completely different prices for the exact same thing, and it's not just happening to consumers. Some companies are now using similar algorithms to track workers and decide their wages, hours, and schedules, even their locations — My plan bans companies from setting personalized prices based on your data — It protects all workers, including gig workers and contractors from algorithmic wage discrimination, and it cracks down on companies using these systems to coordinate things like higher rents and insurance premiums, because the economy shouldn't be a rigged game.”

Facial recognition at the grocery store? Big corporations like Walmart and Kroger should not be able to jack up prices based on who you are. That’s racist, greedy, and wrong. I am introducing a bill to ban surveillance pricing in grocery stores.

Watch former FTC official Samuel Levine testify to Senate Judiciary Republicans today about how AI pricing tools are threatening basic economic fairness. “[Surveillance pricing] is only possible because weak privacy protections allow companies to track our behavior and predict how much we can be pushed to pay.” It’s time for lawmakers to crack down on companies using our personal data to charge us more.

No longer a ‘conspiracy theory’ Online retailers are accessing your data and then adjusting prices for items based on that data Airlines are being caught adjusting prices based on data too “This holiday season, you and your neighbor could be shopping for the exact same item and pay different prices — surveillance pricing is and how your personal data plays a role. You may be shopping for gifts from the comfort of your couch, but stores can still see who you are. Most of these companies are charging you a different price based on some data they have about you. It could be your location, it could be your proximity to the store, it could be your shopping history, knowing that you bought a product previously and are willing pay for it again.” “Consumer watchdog president Jamie Court says surveillance pricing is nearly impossible to avoid — Court says his organization has evidence all the major retailers use personal algorithms to nudge a price up or down, targeting data from your Amazon cart, Uber rides, or even the brand of laptop you're using to shop” “For those traveling for the holidays. Airlines will charge you a different price depending upon how many times you go to the website. “Currently, there is no federal regulation for companies that use surveillance pricing. We reached out to the FTC”

Gov. Polis is vetoing our bill banning surveillance pricing, allowing corporations to keep using your personal data to set prices. We’ll be back next session. The question for the dems running to be our next governor is simple: will you sign it, or side with the companies using our data against us?

What I’m fighting for is an economic vision that does 3 things: You by the age of 30, should be able to buy a home and get married. You and your wife should be able to raise your children on a single income. When it’s time for you or your relatives to retire; they should be able to do so with dignity.

You shouldn’t be charged more or paid less because of your ZIP code or search history. I just introduced a bill to ban “surveillance pricing” — when corporations use your data to hike up prices or cut your wages. It’s invasive. It’s exploitative. And it needs to end.

I just went down this rabbit hole, and it's so fascinating. So apparently, airlines have been selling your data to competitors for years. Strange right? I know, hear me out... It's called dynamic pricing. Dynamic pricing is when a company charges you a price calculated specifically for you, based on what they know about you, rather than a fixed price everyone sees. Nobody called it surveillance. The mainstream take on dynamic pricing is that it's sinister and new. Corporations secretly watching, jacking up prices, exploiting desperation. That anger is mostly right. Dynamic pricing isn't a bug that crept into capitalism. It's the entire architecture of how information asymmetry becomes profit. Airlines have always charged different people different prices for the same seat. Hotels. Insurance companies. Actuarial profiling predates the internet. What changed isn't the behavior. It's the resolution. Your battery at 8% telling Uber you're stranded is a higher-resolution version of the taxi driver who saw you running in the rain and didn't turn the meter off. The new part is the precision. They know you searched the same flight six times. They know you're on a Mac. They know your zip code and how long you've been sitting on the page. Old dynamic pricing responded to demand. Surveillance pricing responds to you. The counterargument from the market side is real. Personalization can mean discounts. But companies optimizing for revenue will use behavioral data to find the ceiling, not the floor. What are your thoughts? Is this fair or pure greed from big corp? That's a wrap. Li is a gallery for the greatest minds in economics, psychology, and history. Follow if that interests you. We are ONE genius away. -- P.S. I'm building a course on how the world actually works. Not the surface story, but the incentive layer underneath it. Who funds what. Who benefits from what you believe? Why the official explanation is rarely the complete one. Comment "yes" if you're interested in something like this. Waitlist opens soon.

Today I proposed banning "surveillance pricing" — a creepy practice where corporations weaponize your personal data to rip you off. Deeply disappointed the motion was rejected. Canadians are already being crushed by sky-high costs. They deserve relief, not corporate exploitation.

🚨 UNITED AIRLINES CAUGHT CHARGING A GRANDMOTHER $400 MORE JUST FOR BEING OLD — AND PEOPLE ARE FURIOUS A viral video is detonating online after a woman claims United Airlines increased her grandmother’s ticket price the SECOND she entered her birth year into the booking system. At first, the exact same flight showed: • $752 She entered: • Birth year: 1949 Seconds later, the screen updated to: • “Based on traveler information provided, the price of your ticket has changed” New total? • $1,156 She then removed the senior information and entered her OWN younger birthday instead… And the flight dropped right back down to: • $752 Now people online are accusing airlines of using: • age-based pricing • “senior taxes” • algorithmic discrimination • and predatory dynamic pricing systems The comments are absolutely exploding: • “This has to be illegal.” • “How is this not discrimination?” • “They should be giving seniors discounts, not charging them MORE.” • “Corporations are becoming completely shameless.” Others insist there could be: • fare class fluctuations • backend pricing glitches • or travel insurance differences But after watching the video… most people aren’t buying those explanations at all. At what point does “dynamic pricing” become outright discrimination against older people? 📹: TikTok/misstaliamia

🚨 THEY’RE PINGING YOUR PHONE TO CHANGE PRICES IN REAL TIME Major retailers are quietly testing AI-driven dynamic pricing with tech that reads your location, data, and proximity to the store before deciding what you pay. Every ping from your phone ... GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, app activity, all of it feeds an algorithm that decides your “value.” The closer you get, the higher it goes. They call it personalized pricing. You’d call it being tracked and charged for who the system thinks you are. Same item. Different people. Different prices. So when your total jumps the second you walk in - is that inflation, or surveillance disguised as a sale?

Candy prices change in front of customers at Walmart because of these new electronic pricing tags This means you could pick up an item, put it in your cart, and by the time you get to the checkout the price could be higher How is this not fraud Americans don’t want electronic pricing tags that change during the day. We all fear this leads to dynamic pricing Side note, these candy bar backs used to be $1 not that long ago. Now they’re $3.16
