Stop Corporations From Using Our Data to Raise Prices

You could be paying more for your next flight—just because of the websites you visit.

A new lawsuit claims JetBlue used personal data to set ticket prices. A grieving customer trying to book a JetBlue flight got this advice: clear your cookies and check again to see if the price drops. That suggests your data can raise your price.

Companies track your behavior, your history, your clicks—and use it to charge you more. And it’s spreading.

The Federal Trade Commission has already found that corporations across the economy—from grocery stores to online retailers—are experimenting with “surveillance pricing,” using your data to quietly hike prices.

Tell the FTC to launch an investigation and ban surveillance pricing now.

Corporations are rigging the marketplace.

They turn your habits, location, and urgency into a pricing weapon. You see the price they think you’ll tolerate—not a fair one.

This hits hardest when you need something fast—flights, food, medicine. Families, travelers, and everyday shoppers pay the price.

The FTC can investigate these practices, fine companies, and ban data-driven price manipulation nationwide.

Sign now and demand the FTC protect consumers before this spreads further.

Your data should never be used as a tool to overcharge you.

The petition to the Federal Trade Commission reads: “Investigate and ban the use of personal data for individualized pricing practices, including so-called ‘surveillance pricing,’ and protect consumers from unfair, deceptive, and discriminatory price manipulation across all industries.”
