I shared this before.

If you were a person of color, having Uber and Airbnb were a game changer. Taxis and hotels were awful from the 80s-2010s.

Taxis were racists and often wouldn't even pick you up. If they did, they often took you on a joyride. Hotels were absolute shit holes. Want to complain about your room? Go pound sand.

Those industries werent good for decades. And the disruption actually made car sharing much more consistent and hotel experiences better.

Fake money for criminals only because it was useful for me when I wanted to buy drugs while living in a place with little access to them

Illegal delivery services are my fav ones. People are physically running or riding like slaves to get you tendies from a KFC across the street. No, you are probably not a person who needs that due to some health conditions, you are privileged to buy their labor cheap and further their abuse.

Uber

Airbnb

Bitcoin

OpenAI

did I guess right

As a fan of major environmental catastrophe, can I vote for all four?

I like the map that shows me where public toilets are. I don't know how that fits into this paradigm.

Extremely confident source of misinformation

I guess I've found the plagiarism machine the most entertaining so far.

All of you pre Uber zealots are adorably naive. The cab industry is scum.

Probably illegal car company. AirBNB isn't terribly different (as a renter) from previous renting sites. I made some money off Bitcoin but even then it is so much wasted power for something not terribly useful. Generative AI and AI art is fun as a toy but eh, that's mostly it.

Being able to pretty easily get a cab from anywhere to anywhere (obviously within reason) is actually kind of a cool innovation to me. It's probably saved lives too by giving inebriated people an easy way to get a cab home. (But I'm not giving them a huge pass because I think they've been accused of finding ways to charge drunk people more.)

Jesus fucking Christ this is cynical.

Definitely Illegal hotel chain. It's actually weirdly exciting to me to go to an airbnb not knowing what amenities or rules to expect, compared to the standardized experience of a hotel.

fake money for criminals is just money in general, at least some crypto currencies don't allow for tracking

AirBnb by far is the worst.

Anonymous and untraceable internet traffic tool for paedophiles, data thieves and occasionally a journalist living under an oppressive regime. But mainly paedophiles.

All money is fake.
