  • Off topic but the worst effect of uber imo has been in poorer countries with no public transport.

    First uber started and it was a rich kids thing. Then it grew and added uber bike which was cheap and uber became more mainstream.

    Then came the inevitable knock offs, cheap uber alternates that give 0 fucks about quality control, allow anyone to drive on it or what vehicle is registered. Absolutely no standards but cheaper.

    Then uber packs bag and leaves while people are now stuck with these terrible services.

    Like sexual assault complaints by their drivers are ignored. Drivers stealing money is ignored. Uber actually took that stuff seriously.
