artificial complexity

The purposeful complication of a process, policy, or offer in order to substantially reduce clarity, usually in hope that consumers of such will overlook a portion to their detriment.
The lawyers who drafted my latest auto insurance policy found a way to fill it with 127 pages of legalese. This is definitely artificial complexity, as it could've easily been conveyed in 10 pages.
