Moving pricing source outside the jurisdiction doesn't change anything, since simply using it will be illegal act of collusion and landlords for the obvious reason of property location will remain within it.. You can always hope to remain undetected, but this is likely high risk approach to take - all it takes is a single disgruntled employee sharing that secret source.
1. Algorithm designers collects all the data. At present they have (almost) perfect data as they get actual transactional prices from their customers. This alone gives them huge information advantage against renters. With public information you generally only see offer prices and how long the place is listed (often even with some missing location details)
2. Algorithm ensures consistent interpretation of data and factors that affect pricing. When its human interpreting data you will have inconsistencies, eg how far does some undesirable neighbour location affects prices, how long does listing remaining available is a problem, do you think that transactional price matched the offer etc.
3. The sad truth is that this whole thing is about making market less efficient in raising housing prices. Given terrible under supply and importance of the housing need for people even simple, stupid algorithms like "match neighbouring landlords plus a bit" will lead to price increases. Its just that automatic systems remove fear about taking bad risk and allow for more aggressive strategies.
Those cant really be separated. AI is just a roundabout way for saying "algorithm to decide price" and there is no difference if that algorithm is decided in a shady backroom during a meeting of representatives or by some high tech company that collects all the data. If multiple parties use same algorithm to decide price they will arrive to same conclusion, resulting in fixed pricing.
Perhaps you should have read TFA:
"While the liability verdict stands, there was some positive news for the ISP as well. The Court overturned the lower court’s decision on how damages should be calculated. A new trial will determine the appropriate amount."
from https://support.spotify.com/us...:
"We calculate streamshare by tallying the total number of streams in a given month and determining what proportion of those streams were people listening to music owned or controlled by a particular rightsholder.
Contrary to what you might have heard, Spotify does not pay artist royalties according to a per-play or per-stream rate; the royalty payments that artists receive might vary according to differences in how their music is streamed or the agreements they have with labels or distributors."
From TFA:
To create the counterfeits, the Chinese suppliers often took older, lower-model products, some of which were previously discarded, and modified them to appear new, while loading pirated Cisco software on the hardware.
This seems like those fees are still remaining extremely high. EU caps fees at 0,2% for debit and 0,3% for credit and both VISA and MasterCard are happy to work here.
The main reason there are no commercial nuclear ships is not lack of tech but huge uncertainty around where will they even be able to go. People are scared of nuclear and many countries/ports will likely forbid them from entering making them extremely undependable ships. In worst case permission can even be cancelled after some anti-nuclear protests. For civilian transport companies that's just an unnecessary risk.

Seems like a nice CPU, but also extremely niche: in most productivity workloads regular 7950x is faster, while in games you have to disable half of the cores (those without extra cache) to get benefits. To make it worth using in practice you need a workload that can make use of both this extra cache of some cores and raw power of a full core count.
I expect that 7950X (productivity) and future 7800X3D (gaming) will relegate this CPU to mere curiosity for most potential buyers.
But how do you find those games you like? After all there are tons of games produced in pretty much any genre, so how to select the interesting one? Do you search through tons of crap in steam store, checking every item if its perhaps something that you would like?
Or perhaps you just encounter the title played by someone else (eg streamer or reviewer) and decide if its interesting based on watching them? If the game becomes popular there will be a lot more of those potential encounters and more people will likely decide to give it a try.
There is also a pure social aspect. I own quite a few games that I would normally ignore only because my friends wanted to play them together. Obviously they wont get me to buy something I would hate, but I might be willing to play some of those in "meh" category just to spend time with them.
its a gallium alloy that has a melting point around room temperature making it a liquid during application. Those alloys have better thermal conductivity (better for cooling) and are electroconductive which means potential shorts when spilled.

That may depend on how those deals were constructed. If they were doing it for lump sum of money then they are likely in the clear. On the other hand if they can be seen as "buying in" on the system then they might get involved with ponzi allegations - courts have sometimes taken profits from ponzi "early winners" to compensate final losers.
If you look at the box shown in the video it says "& Windows Software Development Kit", so clearly this version included it.
