What that means in practice: Platforms can't, for example, collect data about users, and then show those users different prices based on the algorithms assumptions about the user's ability to pay. 3/
Background: Suspicion has been rife (but no hard proof) that platforms like Didi collect data on, say, make and model of phone, and show higher prices to iPhone users than Android users, on the assumption they make more money.
Other examples (also not conclusively proven) include travel platforms charging higher booking prices than hotel's actual rate based on algorithmic assumptions about user spending.
I think Uber is notorious for this type of personalized price discrimination. Given the close relationship between the two companies, I wouldn’t be surprised if Didi also engages in the same behavior.
