      Not all, they were kicked out from Hungary - although that was less a victory of workers’ rights rather than that of the taxi driver union.

        I noticed when I visited Vancouver, BC there were no uber’s or lyft’s available, however - uber eats was available. And most restaurants I walked past had uber eats signs in the windows saying they did delivery. And this was in like 2018

        Every argument in this thread is basically taxi protectionism.

          I mean, I see you personally talking about taxis a lot

            I don’t like protectionism.

              Kinda just sound like a conspiracy nut finding arguments where there are none with people who are just talking about the article

                That’s certainly a take.

          You’re like… The only one talking about taxis, everyone else is talking about worker protection

            That’s nonsensical, since workers drive for both.

          Taxi companies tend to be smaller, more locally owned businesses with actual employees instead of “contractors.” Why would we *not side with them?
