According to a Vice report, due to a loophole in the DoorDash application, drivers on the platform are making much more money in an effort they’re calling #DeclineNow Movement. The two DoorDash Dashers, Dave Levy and Nikos Kanelopoulos are trying to beat the algorithm. They try to persuade their fellow drivers to decline the least paying deliveries. The default system for matching jobs with drivers will automatically respond by increasing pay rates. “Every application based on Demand, the Company’s objective is to shift profits from the driver back to the company constantly,” Levy says. “Our objective is the reverse of that.”
