From what I recall it was exactly the same 10 years ago.
This is a repeating pattern, let's reinvent X but call it something else to bask in the rays of disruption and mislead regulators/consumers long enough to succeed.
- esperent 5y agoUntil recently, ride sharing meant sharing a ride with another driver who was already going the same way as you, without a commercial side (although you might be expected to chip in for petrol). Somewhere in between carpooling and hitchhiking. Uber hijacked the term and took it over to mean a commercial enterprise that is basically unlicensed taxis via smartapp.
