The agency has taken significant steps to move beyond its anti-worker past. With a little push, it can play a big role in helping labor win.

Antitrust regulators looking to curb the megafirm’s abusive practices will have to contend with the vast web of subcontractors and third-party sellers under its control.

For years, the force of antitrust laws has been used to deny independent contractors their labor rights. Thanks to a Boston appeals court’s ruling, that could all change.
