"Tech Giants" is being used in agreement with virtually no reasonable definition of the phrase. For those who didn't read the article, the bill allows people to sell up to 50k a year of home cooked food with relaxed licensing restrictions. The author argues this bill will do virtually nothing to help independent dumpling makers, tamale vendors, etc while the bill is being advertised to help these types of business owners. Instead, the bill was essentially written as a carveout for a startup called Josephine.com which is a marketplace for homecooked meals. The company is currently out of business, so it's hard to see how it could be characterized as a tech giant. A bit of research turns up 3.1 million in seed funding. [1] I acknowledge the author's argument here, but they're really decrying the the fundamental nature of an open democracy. This bill was a direct gimme for the startup, but it actually doesn't seem to be a bad thing. A business that lots of people want to patronize now gets to operate legally. I find it hard to see how that's a bad thing. [1]https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/josephine#section-overview https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/josephine#section-ov...
