    They will argue it’s a price fixing recommendation.

    The landlords are the ones colluding. Personally I would like to see an estimate of economic harm caused by this activity and refunds issued to all renters.

      Yeah, that might have worked if not for the fact that you get banned from using it if you don’t follow all of the “recommendations”.

      It’s not helpful ideas, it’s mandatory directions on how to maximize profiteering.

      Personally I would like to see an estimate of economic harm caused by this activity and refunds issued to all renters.

      That would be a pretty good start, yeah.
