The author has stated that he has reached his breaking point, and others should consider whether they have too.
Disruptive companies have this narrative of being some sort of underdog fighting against the corrupt elite of a broken industry. If I'm going to agree with letting them take their huge margins (partly due to illegally not implementing regulations/collecting the proper taxes), they can at least pretend not to treat people as shit. Not like they need to penny-pinch anyways.
At the end of the day, we always seem to end up becoming greedy exploiters of some underclass.
- kjksf 12y agoUber breaks the law, everybody knows about it and yet no one goes to jail or get sued. How does that happen? How does Uber avoids any consequences for their flagrantly illegal (according to you) behavior? Do they have magic "get out of jail" card? Did they manage to buy police, district attorneys, judges, the whole enchilada? Is it time to turn to street to overthrow our government, which, at least according to you, is incapable of performing it's function of preserving law and order in the face of those blatant criminals from Uber.
