Seattle could soon ban"algorithmic-based price discrimination"for grocery shoppers. It's a move that city leaders are pushing in the name of affordability and privacy protection.

In this episode, we'll talk to a City Councilmember who's trying to pass it, as well as an industry leader who has critiques of the ordinance as it's written. We'll also hear from a privacy reporter about what this fight against "surveillance" or "personalized pricing" looks like around the country.
