A hidden consequence of the gig economy is that workers keep asking customers for sex or dates

• Businesses in food and parcel delivery often rely on large numbers of gig-economy workers.
• The UK's data watchdog found some of these workers are propositioning customers.
• "People have the right to order a pizza [...] without then being asked for sex," a watchdog said.

Almost 1 in 3 Brits between 18 and 34 years old have received unwanted contact from delivery drivers or other workers asking them out on dates or for sex, the UK's data watchdog has warned.
