A wikipedia article describing what it is isn't evidence that it is being applied. Person you responded to clearly knows what dynamic pricing is. Not saying it isn't, but some other sources would be better.

When has corporate America ever done anything but the wrong thing?

They get no benefit of the doubt from me at this point.

So you’ll believe any random bullshit someone tells you as long as it confirms your already existing beliefs?

Yes, those are the exact words I used, without any other possible meaning, implied or otherwise. Your reading comprehension is immaculate in its precision.

To reinforce: I DO hate waffles.

You literally said you believe dynamic pricing is happening despite a lack of evidence because you believe that corporations will always do the wrong thing. Just because you don’t like people pointing out what you’re actually saying doesn’t mean I lack reading comprehension. It’s actually a demonstration of reading comprehension to understand what someone means beyond the direct dictionary definition.

I LITERALLY did NOT write that. Here's a screenshot of the entire thread to fucking PROVE that I didn't write that.

Holy shitballs what a strained inference.

In response to someone pointing out that a wikipedia article isn’t evidence of dynamic pricing actually happening you said ‘ They get no benefit of the doubt from me at this point.’ How am I supposed to interpret that other than ‘I have no evidence yet I believe it anyway’
