If you're actually asking and interested in an opinion - I support Uber because it has absolutely been a net positive to my daily life. As a freelancer who has to hop around a bit during the week to meet with different clients, occasionally on short notice, being able to consistently get a ride from wherever I am to wherever I'm going is a very big deal. More so, and this is potentially even more impactful, this experience doesn't change if I'm in Boston, or Melbourne ,or Shanghai. I don't need to research what the most reliable local cab company is, I don't need to worry if they're going to refuse me service because I only have a US mobile number, I don't even need to try and find a phone number - I just open the app and typically have a car in less than 10 minutes. This is one thing that I feel often gets lost in discussions around Uber, is that it flattens the experience globally. I love this.
