Classic post Powell Atlantic blaming Uber because the writer's kids don't wear seatbelts. To say that Uber is a public safety hazard because there's data on people wearing their seatbelt less in taxicabs is, simply untrue. Essentially reducing the agency of people as a group down to some kind of technological serf class. Truly strange writing.
