Re:Uber stops upfront ride pricing in response to California... by tlb on Saturday January 11, 2020 @01:16PM (#22021361)
There was a lot of noise about AB5: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Assembly_Bill_5_(20....

AB5 supposedly just clarifies what the law already said: that workers should be classified as employees except in narrow circumstances when they're clearly independent. As employees, they're entitled to minimum wage, sick leave, etc.

It's a plausible interpretation of some old laws designed for a different world, but it doesn't seem like good policy for today.
