I don't think the point was that cab murders were high, just that both were low, so the whole freak out is probably not rational.
The "heard of often" just means it gets plastered on the news / social media when it does happen.
- gbraad 8y ago> not rational If it could have been prevented, it is the right reaction. Besides, this is how China works most of the time. Pressure (boycot) on companies leads to results... or put them out of (nearly) business.
- seanmcdirmid 8y agoI believe that was my original point: Chinese officials will rely on didi to police it’s drivers, since having the police instead do that isn’t practical. But it winds up being worse than that, since if didi wasn’t around we would all be taking anonymous black cabs again.
- gbraad 8y agoWhat is wrong with the usual cabs? Sure, slightly more expensive but reliable.
- seanmcdirmid 8y agoNo, it’s the opposite actually. Cheaper, less reliable, especially the black cabs.
