Technically does that mean the FTC can literally go after all the companies for collusive price fixing?

Well they are saying there is no collusion. Companies are all individually deciding to raise prices and not bringing them down.
Tacit collusion isn’t illegal
It probably should be in the internet age. There is a huge cottage industry out there for fixing prices. I hope that the feds discover all the OTHER companies out there that are similar to RealPage.
Yeah especially with the advent of algorithmic pricing it's going to get a lot harder to regulate
