Monopolistic Rent-Seeking
Abuse of market power to extend dominance across adjacent markets or extract rents from captive counterparties. The violation is not market leadership itself — it is leveraging a dominant position in one market to foreclose competition or extract value in others: payment tying, platform lock-in that taxes an entire ecosystem, or fee structures that only survive because switching costs are prohibitive. Distinct from predatory_lending (consumer credit), financial_misconduct (fraud), and anticompetitive (which may overlap but focuses on market structure). The hallmark question: would this pricing or practice be possible without the structural power advantage?
