As a homo economicus blindfoldus - nothing. Cheaper and better service here right now? Yay, party time!

As a responsible citizen of a civilized society however, one should be interested in how such a service comes to be, and what it means to people involved and the society at large.

BTW. I'm founding a biotech startup now; we provide personalized medication for free, OTC, ordered through our mobile app. We can do that because of our innovative manufacturing model, which involves doing BSL-4 level work with pathogens in our garage. I.e. we're disrupting the corrupt dinosaur regulations to provide a cheaper and better service.

That's a lot of nice sounding platitudes, but it doesn't really tell me anything concrete beyond "TeMPOraL dislikes Uber".
You're a HN regular, so you've probably seen pretty much every single Uber misbehaviour over the last few years. I don't think there's more to be added.
