Parent seems to pivot to an argument about monopoly instead. That's a slick backslide that should be called out.

- alwayseasy 7y agoI don't see how I'm pivoting to an argument when I'm explaining the decision. Call out the French judges who clearly lack your insights and deeper understanding of local laws. I'm giving the context of the French legal case, you're arguing from an American market stand point. Yelp or eBay are barely blips in France, Lyft doesn't even exist. Maybe Uber drivers are contractors in the US, but not according to French laws and market conditions as proven by the court decision today.
- AnthonyMouse 7y agoThe monopoly argument doesn't even work. Lyft provides meaningful and direct competition. Observe that the large majority of the fare goes to the driver and not to Uber or Lyft.
- alwayseasy 7y agoLyft doesn't operate in France.
- AnthonyMouse 7y agoAnd yet the majority of the fare still goes to the driver, because they still have other competitors there.
