Muggles don't care about decentralization or freedom or privacy. They want to press a button on their phone and something happens, no matter the consequences.

Muggles don't care about decentralization or freedom or privacy. They want to press a button on their phone and something happens, no matter the consequences. There are risks in everything. The only thing any ridesharing app at the end of the day can truly offer consumers of any meaningfulness in terms of driver / rider security are public ratings on both from all their previous customers and clients. Anything else is some artificial gating metric that tries to break people down into historic footnotes. I hope that AC has such a feature, but even if it does not if its an Ethereum app you can very easily include ratings per contract.
