That's why old regulations were good in old times but now that app can help you choose the best taxi at the best price this is not necessary.

Technology changes, people change so regulations must change with it.

We should version control all laws and regulations and we should debug them when we see people taking advantage of them in unexpected ways.

*can help you choose the best taxi [registered through that app] at the best price [available through the app].

Do not forget that Uber, TaxiMagic, etc. are still closed and managed environments -- they are simply more opaque, as a corporation is choosing the makeup of that market instead of a government entity.

Laws are already version controlled and debugged when necessary, where does that come from? Laws are amended and repealed all the time, in every level of legislation.

You can have multiple apps on your phone however i know very few people who would ask every taxi parked there how much they charge.

Plus the first one is a market place the second is just one taxi.

Hell I wouldn't mind if a government entity launched an app that did the same thing.
