I think there is an interesting contrast between this recruiting approach and the Google/Apple/Intel/Intuit non-recruiting agreements people were complaining about yesterday. Yet here, the weight of opinion is on the other side, while I see them as roughly equivalent.

I don't thin the issue is Uber recruiting drivers. The issue is DOSing their competitor to do so.

Yes, the lawyer mixed in the bonus offer into the complaint, but that would appear to be a good thing for drivers, if not for Gett.

I guess the question is whether sending requests and cancellations to 100 different drivers over 3 days (about 33 different drivers per day, maybe 4-5 per hour in a workday) really constitutes a denial of service. It seems exaggerated, but it is working as Gett is getting attention.

Definitely a bad idea though.
