Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @mayor.nyc.gov · 22/09/2026
DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.
DoorDash messed up.
They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty.
That's unacceptable.
We've secured a $131.5M settlement from
DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in
American municipal history.
Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.

I regret to inform you the Flock-powered police state will be queer-inclusive
A New Bedford, Massachusetts, police officer is under investigation after being accused of using a Flock Safety camera to track her ex-girlfriend’s movements, per the New Bedford Light.

In a signed affidavit, the ex-girlfriend, who is not named in media reports, said she began receiving “endless calls” from her ex-girlfriend Emily Pacheco, a New Bedford police officer, in April after the couple ended their two-year relationship.

“She then generated fake phone numbers to reach out to me, calling and texting,” the woman wrote, per the Light. “Showing up to my home unannounced and refuse[d] to leave when asked … saw me pull into my home while on duty, got out of her cruiser and refused to let me leave.”

The affidavit also includes allegations that Pacheco ran her license plate number through Flock’s system in order to follow her.

Per data obtained by the Light, Pacheco has been one of the top users of the Flock system in New Bedford this year. Pacheco most commonly input “traffic infraction” as her reason for using the tracking software. In April, the month that Pacheco broke up with her ex, she reportedly ran 18 searches. By May, that number ran up to 259, with 220 searches in June, per the Light.
