Come to think of it, the question of "evil" seems almost irrelevant in the big picture. Even if say Lyft is marginally more ethical than Uber, the end long-term result will still be a fleet of drivers competing against each other in Taylorism mode to be paid a pittance, only to be eventually replaced by automated vehicles.

Anecdotally, my aged father (72) uses Uber. Uber has spread pretty well to 3rd world countries and is popular in all the vacation spots.

Some people I know tried to switch to Lyft when all the bad PR on Uber hit, but the prices were higher so either they switched back to Uber or the more passionate ones are now riding the metro again.

I don't know about other cities but in teh Bay Area prices are pretty evenly matched.

Most of my family and friends exclusively use Uber because of Travis and his values.

What values?

Libertarian

So money, gotcha.
