British tech expert and former Uber driver James Farrar won several influential court cases. He wants to equalize the balance of power by analyzing drivers' data, and uniting platform workers in the Worker Info Exchange and the App Drivers and Couriers Union.
For The Gig Work Podcast from the WageIndicator Foundation, platform expert Martijn Arets spoke to Farrar about his fight for justice in the platform economy.
