Who is doing the lockouts ? Seems to be Uber and Lyft Corporate as opposed to NYC. If so, that seems to be an FTC Issue. Or is there some law in NYC to help

Who is doing the lockouts ? Seems to be Uber and Lyft Corporate as opposed to NYC. If so, that seems to be an FTC Issue. Or is there some law in NYC to help taxi drivers. FWIW, in NYC I always take a cab due to regulations cab drivers have. It may be a bit more expensive but not that bad. If I lived there ? Maybe I would reconsider.
