This whole thing is antithetical to the spirit of the open web. Remember when we wanted to index REAL information? The LEAST these platforms (Yelp, Grubhub, Google) can do is show a real phone number for a local business.

The restaurant industry needs open source. Think about how open source helped level the playing field for indie tech businesses. Every tech entrepreneur benefits from free software. Why should low margin restaurants be any different? https://twitter.com/danpriceseattle/status/1251667344155217921?s=21 …https://twitter.com/DanPriceSeattle/status/1251667344155217921 …

Grubhub is not “adding value” here. They’re taking advantage of a business sector that has razor-thin margins, and is barely keeping its head above water. They’re going to growth-hack their way to destroying the livelihood of all their customers.

App developers complain when Apple takes a 30% cut of sales. But the profit margins on software are often 80%+. Typical restaurant profits margins are 5%!!! (Grubhub charges 15-30%!)pic.twitter.com/ol4EMPnS5i

W odpowiedzi do @mijustin
Don't restaurants mark-up prices vs pick-up for yourself? That's been my experience... When you add a tax to a service, the incidence of the tax falls on consumers/producers depending on elasticity of supply/demand, no? Were it otherwise, how could they afford sales taxes?

I can almost guarantee you that most restaurants are not marking up their food 30% for all Grubhub orders. Also: this is not a tax. These are the kinds of services charges that businesses feel they need to swallow “in order to compete.”
