I didn't know that. That's way beyond what Just Eat/Takeaway does in Europe. They have a predatory business model of course; restaurants either join them, or loose customers accustomed to seeing every available delivery option in one place, but if a restaurant doesn't want them, they don't resort to such tricks (I don't think they could without falling foul of some regulations, mainly the issue of reselling a product already taxed in a business to consumer transaction).

A lot of restaurants are fighting back and do join Thuisbezorgd and whatever local iteration Just Eat/Takeaway has, but they also ask their customers to use their own website instead. It saves them a lot of money.
