I wonder what the secondary consequences will be. The gig worker law had some nasty secondary consequences for musicians and such. These regulations really seem to hurt the little guys.

That said, the law is short and doesn't even go to deeply into what an "agreement" is. So maybe it's ok?

well, the gig worker law never got to do it's intended thing, first cause the stays, then cause prop 22, so now it should just be repealed. Had it, at least the distortions for musicians that are also Uber drivers would have been the same.

I would by the other's argument that this is about preventing misrepresentation. In fact, perhaps it should have already be covered by trademark protections anyways.
