Uber, DoorDash to make tipping harder for NYC customers

According to Bloomberg report, Uber Eats (UBER) and DoorDash (DASH) have made changes to their respective apps to make it more difficult to tip drivers after a NYC wage law went into effect on December 4th. The new base rate is $17.96 an hour for the drivers, who are saying the tipping change could cause them to earn less in the long run. Yahoo Finance Anchors Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton break down the latest from this development and what it could mean for the companies and workers going forward.

These tech companies should just come out an say that they don't have a path to profitability. UNLESS they can't exploit workers?

Drivers need $2/mile. No tip would be needed. No minimum wage would be needed. You're welcome.

Haven't ever used any of those services yet if I knew that their policy was to let drivers choose in favor of who offered the highest tips I would never use them.
It is wrong to conduct business in discriminatory ways, and that is discrimination.
Glad they stopped the practice.
