Tech’s broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap::Some tech is getting pricier and looking a lot like the older services it was supposed to beat. From video streaming to ride-hailing and cloud computing.
For me it’s the fact that I get an upfront price, and know the ride is tracked and there’s a company that can resolve disputes. I’ve had a bunch of super uncomfortable taxi rides where the driver was clearly taking longer routes to drive up the fare.
