Your browsing history, your location, your purchasing patterns. Companies are collecting huge amount of data on you—and some are using it to charge you higher prices. It’s predatory. And it needs to end.

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.”

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”

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.

'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

🚨 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?

Some times it feels like it’s not worth it. The weeds, the bugs, the money spent doing it right. Then you see your forest full of fireflies, and your pigs are health with no drugs or antibiotics and your longhorns are fat on eating in the woods. It’s worth it.

John McAfee on how secure are our smartphones: "There is no security whatsoever." "While you are watching your phone, your phone is watching you." "The operating system is designed specifically to watch you, listen to you, find out where you are in order to help you." "It needs to know who your friends are. It needs to listen to you sometimes." "It is the world's greatest spy device."
