Apple only charges its 30% fee for digital content, and specifically not for physical goods, like things you buy from Amazon. So are tips considered digital content, even though you receive nothing in return? Or is Apple adding a 3rd class

The mobile viewport for me is slightly smaller than the width of the page, so I can always scroll left or right just a few pixels, and never zoom out. Not a real issue, but it bugs me a little bit.

I agree with Comodo; paying off victims does not solve the problem. Clearly what needs to happen is for Uber to discipline/fire the offender or offenders. Establishing that they will follow through on complaints would (ideally) dissuad
