[2015-10-14] Uber Data Breach Proves Blockchain Model Needed

[tyz]

Uber released its “Uber Partner App,” a collaboration of ideas between its engineers and drivers that gives users a more personalized feel. The result of the Partner app puts driver insights in the hands of its network — and apparently the general public as well.

Actual decentralised Uber, please.

Cab drivers need to start getting a prototype app together themselves IMO, no-one cares more than they do (slightly too much in the case of the cab drivers sabotaging the privately owned vehicles of Uber drivers). Uber got rid of the old model by getting rid of the old baggage. Uber's model is the new baggage, get rid of the company in the middle. Best way for committed cab drivers to hang on to any kind of business, and they need to move quick, Uber plan on removing the human driver component as a part of their long term strategy.
