СОВРЕМЕННЫЙ ПОТРЕБИТЕЛЬ: В ТЕНЕТАХ ЦИФРОВОЙ ЭКОНОМИКИ
Цифровая экономика создает не только новые возможности, но и порождает определенные риски для потребителей. Исследователи отмечают возникновение эффектов запутывания, с помощью которых цифровые экосистемы осуществляют манипулирование оптимизационным выбором индивида в условиях высоких поисковых трансакционных издержек. Межвременной разброс цен и динамическое ценообразование базируются на использовании невнимательности клиентов и их информационной усталости от многочисленных ценовых колебаний. Периодические снижения цен затрудняют индивидам ценовую ориентацию и служат хорошим стимулом для поддержания картельной дисциплины цифровых платформ. Новые ценовые стратегии запутывания не подпадают под действие текущего антимонопольного законодательства и никак не регулируются.
Ключевые слова: потребитель, цифровая экономика, эффекты запутывания.
