I love how literally 20+ stories in the mainstream media about terrible shit Uber has definitely done basically becomes "Yeah I can't believe you lemmings would care about that PR spin, here are a couple good things Uber has done according to their PR department". Why thank you great oracle, for bringing us the real truth...
Which 20+ stories? The one where a journalist with financial ties to a competitor tried to bait an Uber exec into a hypothetical conversation and then took lines out of context (others at that dinner party said effectively the same thing). Or do you mean the one where they're giving private contractors new opportunities?
None of the good things that Uber are doing came from uber. Those were all things that non-biased third parties said. Are any of them not true? Is Uber not actually creating more jobs next year than the sum of all startups combined? Are they not saving lives from DUIs? Are they not (and have they not) done a significant amount for charity from their on-demand charity events?
Maybe I'm missing something here. I'm open to a different take on those points. Those appear to be significant points in favor of Uber. I'm open to a conversation on the pros/cons though. Maybe you can change my mind.
