"algorithmic pricing" is the "seed oils" of cash registers.

my local nacho prices spike 400% every day at 4:20pm, can't figure it out...

"X% profit margin, round up to the next nice number in table" is technically an algorithm. But personalized pricing based on privacy invading algorithms definitely shouldn't be allowed, especially if they're exploitative IMHO

Consumer prices rise as wholesale prices rise is an algorithm. A regular customer gets 10% off is another. But I bet she means “set by a computer”.
