Which is exactly what was described.

Mmm no its describing an algorithm of raising prices for their own products

Yes, which is the price-fixing I was talking about. There doesn’t need to be an overt agreement to fall under price fixing.

It does need at least an implied agreement of companies intentionally working together to raise prices. A computer program to determine your own prices does not imply working with any other company.
