> quite different from say, the suburbs.

My small rural town of 9000 people had multiple taxi services that poorer people relied on to do even their grocery shopping. We didn't need "disruption"

Tech bros generalizing a negative experience from NYC or SV to the entire US has been so stupid.

If you didn't need disruption, why did people choose to use the new service?

Couldn’t the same thing be said about Walmart killing small businesses?

The fact that disruption occurred doesn’t necessarily mean that the end result is better.
