    The complaint, filed earlier today by Attorney General Brian Schwalb, focuses on the multifamily landlords’ use of software from Texas-based firm RealPage, which suggests rental prices based on a pricing algorithm. Key to those models, according to the suit, is the data fed in from the landlords and the pressure RealPage puts on them to stick to the code-derived rental rates.

    Yes, I’m sure those poor landlords fought against raising rent tooth and nail.

    So the government shut the software down and arrested the landlords illegally colluding, right? right?

    And people wonder why I am so fucking anti capitalist.

    Let’s just burn it all down and eat these fucking anti-human shitstains already.
