There is a third choice: neither. You're in Toronto for crying out loud - despite the kvetching of its residents the TTC is one of the best transit systems on the continent.
Uber is shady as fuck, so is the cab industry. Pointing out the degrees to which they are shady is not particularly useful and serves only to rationalize supporting unethical actors.
- diminoten 12y agoWhat's shady about an Uber ride? I've taken dozens and not a single one gave me any problems whatsoever. No one's going to care how the front office of Uber acts if the product they offer is solid.

Microsoft still made immensely popular and good products, even while they were stomping all over the tech industry in the 90s. I agree that a good product coming out of a company with abusive practices behind-the-scenes is unlikely to be boycotted widely, but the company is still shady.
- aianus 12y agoThat's not the same product. I do use the TTC whenever it's convenient.
