GEEEEEE, what a coincidence, eh? Almost like these companies may be coordinating some sort of market shift for some reason.

What do you call that when a bunch of companies responsible for large swathes of market share of a particular good or service use the guise of unnatural market pressure to create conditions unnaturally beneficial to themselves and not consumers?

Please hold. The invisible hand of the market is on its way. Please hold. Nothing is wrong with your economy. The invisible hand of the market is on its way. Please hold. Do not attempt to adjust your economy. Trust the invisible hand. Please hold....

According to the article, it might be a company in China, but that remains to be seen. They could just as easily pivot into AI bullshit to try to get a piece of that pie before the bubble pops.
