It is funny to see how 30+ different governments are now up in arms against something that is essentially just a set of computers running on the internet, i.e. the Uber platform.

I wonder how many copycats will spring up in the future, and become Uber2, Uber3,and so on?

In Canada, Uber obviously made a serious mistake. They should not be physically present anywhere. Their strategy does not work, if governments can physically attack them. They are themselves missing the point about themselves.

I see governments everywhere seething and claiming that they want to shut down AirBnb, but where to do that? AirBnb does not have offices or staff over there, and therefore make it impossible for these governments to engage in their core business, that is, to use violence in order to impose their stupidity onto others.
