No, the value is not in the app, it's in the data, the network effects, and the ability to connect drivers and riders. Unfortunately, none of that matters if you live in Siberia because that's also not where the "value" is.

Critiquing it because "it's not that hard" and "that's not where the value is" really misses the point, and illustrates something of the rottenness in the Silicon Valley / VC approach.
