"Boost in Goodwill: NYC Food Delivery Workers See Significant Tip Surge Following Crackdown on Deceptive Practices.

The new law, designed to curb "deceptive" tipping practices, has led to a substantial increase in tips for delivery workers, with a staggering $104 million added to their earnings since its enforcement.
