🚨 Consumer Alert: Surveillance Pricing 🚨 “What if the price you see online isn’t the price everyone else sees?” @newyorkstateag explains how some companies may use your online activity, location, shopping habits, or device data to adjust prices based on what they think you’re willing to pay. This can make it harder to: ⚠️ Comparison shop ⚠️ Know if you’re getting a fair price ⚠️ Stay within budget — especially for people on fixed incomes Imagine mentioning you need laundry detergent near a smart device… then seeing higher prices when you search online. People, not algorithms should determine prices.

🗣️New Yorkers deserve clear, fair pricing—no matter who they are or how they shop. AARP New York was proud to stand with @newyorkstateag and @amEmeritatorres in the Bronx in support of the One Fair Price Act, which would ban surveillance pricing in NY. This predatory practice uses personal data to charge different people different prices. 🎯It can hit hardest for: • Older New Yorkers • People on fixed incomes • Rural residents • Anyone who relies on online shopping No one should feel like they’ve been ripped off! People deserve transparency and the power to decide what they can afford. #FairPricing #ConsumerProtection #Fraud
