FTC probes nine firms for surveillance pricing (foxbusiness.com)

Federal regulators ordered Delta, Uber, Walmart, and six other companies to disclose how they use personal data to set consumer prices and worker compensation. The inquiry targets airlines, ride-hailing services, delivery platforms, and retailers to determine if algorithms create price disparities based on browsing history or user profiles. Companies have 45 days to respond to the orders, which could lead to legal action if compliance is not met.
