I always wondered that too. And Uber itself makes no bones about how its ultimate strategy is blatantly anti-competitive. It's weird; it seems to go to a degree well past Microsoft's bundling Internet Explorer a bit too tightly with Windows in 1998, for example, which I understood to be the basis of their getting sued by the Justice Department. Edit: Ah, well, I guess sibling comments have answered the question, more or less. Thanks!
