Dynamic Pricing Is Turning Everyday Gouging Into the Norm
Original: The End of a Fair Price: Dynamic Pricing and the Normalization of Gouging
A new piece argues that dynamic pricing has eroded the idea of a fair, stable price, letting companies quietly raise costs under the banner of algorithmic 'price setting'. The author, reviewing coverage of battles against an army of price-setters, frames the practice as normalization of gouging rather than efficient markets. Readers are debating whether surge-style pricing has spread too far into everyday goods and services.
Why now: Frustration with fluctuating prices on everyday purchases has made dynamic pricing a live topic of debate.
