If some subsection of the workers owned the app, they would want to collect rents just as Uber, Lyft, etc. do. The concept of all the workers owning the app is amorphous. How does that work when Uber's churn rate on drivers is quite high? It's a constantly shifting pool of gig economy workers. I don't disagree with the premise that there are problems in the gig economy: there are. But the gig workers owning the app just doesn't make sense.
