I think they've realized that they've successfully trained poor people to not know how to cook and then there aren't any options left if they all band together.

I wonder if there’s software that makes pricing cartels easier to form now.

Banding together is supposed to be economically unstable because anyone who undercuts on price is supposed to capture the market.

Drug cartels can punish defectors with violence. Is there some new mechanism legal businesses are using to punish pricing cartel defectors? Maybe it’s lawsuits?
