I've been documenting this data on my own with screenshots after seeing a degradation in DoorDash (YC S13) deliveries around 2022, and getting annoyed at having to escalate to customer service or peers at mid-level roles internally.

It's not at all scientific, but it's helped me get my escalations resolved fairly quickly after bringing up some of the data collection and potential liability issues (that cannot be resolved by arbitration ;) ) to their Safety teams.

I don't blame the drivers though. Fundamentally, it's product and operation leadership in Mission Bay (Uber) and Rincon Hill (DoorDash - YC S13) that is causing this - and I'm sure a lot of those guys are on HN as well.

Nothing will happen though, plenty of our peers are tight with this Admin. A16Z, YC, and a number of other funds became close to the Trump admin after the Biden admin poked the bear by proposing changes to unrealized capital gains tax brackets [0][1] along with the OECD Global Tax Deal [2]
