People need to understand that when a tech company is "disrupting" it means they're exploiting legal loopholes.
Reminds me of Stavros's bit on tech companies.
Omg this is hilarious
lol! That’s great.
Imagine if Uber had done it ethically. All the app, none of the shady. Would’ve been a WAY slower start but I want to believe the excellent technology would’ve been enough for them to win. No “broken” card readers, no scamming women in countries with foreign currency (former colleague’s anecdote), no having to lie to get the driver to let you in before telling them later your real destination, reduced racial discrimination…
Also since Google thinks this is OK:
reduced it to the usual (/ working Piped mirror)
I think people are starting to catch on to that. Maybe I'm overly optimistic though.
My gut says you're overly optimistic lol
