Why is everything so expensive these days? There are a lot of reasons, but among them is that competitors are using algorithms to collude, raising prices together.
That’s why we’re happy to have played a part in passing #AB325, the Preventing Algorithmic Price Fixing Act.
#AB325 made it explicit: if price-fixing is illegal in a boardroom, it’s illegal in code. No more hiding behind software to jack up rent or grocery prices. Real safeguards for California families are finally enforceable. 2/
#AB325 and #SB53 are officially CALIFORNIA LAW.
As of Jan 1, CA has strengthened protections against algorithmic price-fixing, authorized #CalCompute to broaden access to #AI infrastructure, and put transparency and safety rules in place. This is what standing up for a fair economy looks like. 1/
Last year, legislators passed and @governor.ca.gov signed #AB325 to crack down on algorithmic price-fixing and #SB53 to democratize AI infrastructure access. These weren't easy fights, but they showed we can take on powerful interests and win when we put people first. 2/

2/ For years, big corporations have used algorithms to secretly hike prices on everything from rent to groceries. #AB325 ends that, giving the AG real tools to crack down on digital price fixing and hold corporate offenders accountable.
1/ 🎉🧵 BIG WIN: Gov. Newsom (@governor.ca.gov) yesterday signed #AB325 into law! The era of corporate collusion hiding behind computer code is over. Californians deserve fair prices, not corporate price manipulation, and that’s exactly what this bill delivers.

#AB325 codifies best practices to assess when algorithmic price-fixing is happening and hold companies accountable.
@agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov just signed a letter of support of the Preventing Algorithmic Price Fixing Act #AB325!
Before, when competitors wanted to collude to raise prices, they’d meet behind closed doors and in a smoky backroom.
We've heard back about the committee hearing votes: 11 ayes and 2 nos on #AB325. It's looking good!
Now we're hearing questions from committee members about #AB325
"Let's be crystal clear about the stakes: if we can't tackle algorithmic collusion today, understand that the next iteration of this problem is right around the corner. Surveillance pricing is the King Kong of algorithmic collusion; let's start tackling it today with #AB325." -@dohamekki.bsky.social
Next witness for #AB325 is @dohamekki.bsky.social, Former Acting United States Assistant Attorney General for the Antitrust Division and current Senior Fellow at Berkeley Center for Consumer Law & Economic Justice
Lee Hepner from @econliberties.bsky.social is sharing his testimony in support of #AB325 - "The purpose of this bill is to restore a fair economy in this country."
" #AB325 updates California's antitrust laws to address the use of modern tools for illegal price fixing"
#AB325 is officially being heard! Author Assemblymember Cecilia Aguiar-Curry is presenting the bill to the Judiciary Committee now.
#AB325 confronts how tech is being used to cheat the market today. If passed, it will update California’s antitrust laws to make it clear that using digital pricing algorithms to coordinate prices among competitors is just as illegal as traditional price fixing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3G0t...
