I have no issue with them collecting basic stats. I'm contributing to the statistics Homebrew collects and when Django gets their statistics I will keep them enabled or opt-in. However, I should be allowed to opt out. I also don't

Can anyone verify the claims on their production setup? I'm always a bit weary of these announcements. It's easier to get big numbers like that on benchmarks than in real usage scenarios, has usually been my experience.

I don't believe so. UberX is not ridesharing, UberPOP is. Also, if I am mistaken, please point me to the source in the article that actually states that they're targeting UberX. The article explicitly mentions UberPOP, if it would

I'm having a hard time understanding why you'd build up a product as a add-on to or heavily reliant on a closed(ish) platform. You're putting yourself at the mercy of a large corporation, that usually doesn't end well.
