Well i live in vancouver and it took a bunch of time for uber to be allowed here which may account for that. I personally know a few people who moved from cabs to uber here. They are people i also work with. But again this is way off topic.

Its the tech that uber/lyft/doordash/skipthedishes etc use that is what i brought it up for.

How ethically it is used is a very different story and discussion so im done with this
