- meheleventyone 4y agoTo differentiate the things like car pooling from things like Uber.
- DiogenesKynikos 4y agoThey're using the definition of "ridesharing" that everyone used before Uber came along. Uber branded itself a "ridesharing" app in order to avoid regulations on taxicabs, despite the fact that what Uber does has nothing to do with ridesharing.
- dumpsterlid 4y agoI think probably because "ridesharing" is a pleasant word that evokes a nice image of people carpooling together instead of conjuring up exploitative, shit companies like Uber
