Why is the primary gimmick of all these “disruptive technologies” simply a way of avoiding regulation? You could practically just generate “disruptive technologies” by just looking at what gets regulated and then somehow trying to push all the risk onto gig workers in their place. Don’t want to have health regulations for restaurants? Start an app that let’s people cook meals from their home and send it to you. Don’t want to deal with getting licensed to be a therapist? Start an app that let’s anybody be a “counselor” via zoom meeting, etc.
