RE: https://zeroes.ca/@datum/116529211705505989
"Parliament voted down a motion on April 15 to ban a practice most Canadians have never heard of, but that retailers are already rolling out: surveillance pricing.
"Also called algorithmic personalized pricing, the practice uses personal data to estimate how much consumers are willing to pay, then adjusts the price accordingly. Two shoppers, same store, same item: two different prices, generated by data neither of them can see."

Surveillance pricing is different. Where dynamic pricing responds to market conditions, surveillance pricing responds to the individual. It draws on browsing history, device, postal code, purchase frequency and inferred income to predict a person’s willingness to pay.

Dynamic pricing seems to ask: “What are the conditions right now?” Surveillance pricing asks: “Who are you, and how much can we extract from you?”

I feel like this piece in @thetyee is close to @pluralistic 's heart

Eine Frage an die Runde:
Ich habe schon einige sehr erschreckende Artikel von Cory Doctorov zum Thema #SurveillancePricing in den USA gelesen.
Aber wie ist eigentlich die Situation hier in Deutschland? Sowohl was die juristische Theorie als auch die tatsächliche Praxis betrifft?

If a store knows, for example, that one of those customers lives in a wealthier neighborhood, it can charge that person a higher price.
The bill enforcing the ban, the Protection From #PredatoryPricing Act, goes into effect on Oct 1. Merchants face fines of $10k for running afoul of the #law, & penalties of $25k for repeat offenses.

#Maryland Is First to Ban #AI #Grocery #PriceGauging
A #state #law that goes into effect in October prohibits grocery stores & third-party delivery services from using consumer data to boost #prices.
The practice — supported by #ArtificialIntelligence & known as #DynamicPricing or #SurveillancePricing — can lead to 2 consumers paying different amounts for the same item from the same retailer, at roughly the same time.

How surveillance pricing raises the prices for all of us.
Just received you pay-check? Breakfast can be more expensive.
A health problem or urgent travel requirement? Up goes the price for medicines or travel.
They analyse your needs and profit accordingly.

🚨 Oh, look! Another groundbreaking article on surveillance pricing that you can't actually read because it's locked behind a "403 Forbidden" wall of brilliance. 🎉 Clearly, the cutting-edge insights on asymmetric information are just too revolutionary for mere mortals to handle. 🙄🔒

#Maryland becomes first state to pass bill banning ‘#surveillancepricing’
The bill was backed by Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, who proposed that lawmakers address the issue.
The practice refers to companies using a shopper's personal data, such as browsing history, location, or purchasing behavior, to tailor prices to individual customers.
Violations would be treated as deceptive trade practices under state law, with potential fines and lawsuits.

We can all relax! Big Business says #surveillancepricing could bring lower prices. Isn't that what giant corporations are all about - lowering prices? 🤣
"But some businesses have told the Competition Bureau of Canada the practice could help them offer lower prices to consumers."

I'm glad the NDP is bringing attention to the issue of surveillance pricing.
I notice today that the Liberal Party shut down Don's motion on preventing surveillance pricing. Seems they are just sycophants of big business.
