      I do ALL my Internet activity via a VPN. Why? No particular reason, other than I like privacy

      I’ve done it several times (though I prefer pickup).

      DoorDash isn’t known for being an ethical company so I don’t share my location with them, and I purposely use Apple Pay because like NFC it generates a one-time card number with only enough funds for the transactions.

      Thankfully DoorDash has never denied me service even while ordering from what looks like across the planet to it.

          Besides, you can give it whatever address you want. You don’t have to give it access to location services at all.

            If you give it some random address then they’ll get the food, not you?

            Also why even use the app if you’re going to pick up at the restaurant yourself? Just call the restaurant and give them your order. You’ll pay less for the food because there’s no fees going to the app!
