After a period of consideration, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) has decided that Uber is a transport service, just like any other taxi company. There is lot to say about Uber's use of untrained, non-professional drivers and other abusive practices.

    At 3% / 5 year grow rate, to get to the 42mils now to 350mils required for parity, it will be something like 80+
    years. I promise you I'll worry then, if I still can. Until then, not much to fuss about.

    It'll take much less to get in parity with people who use taxis.
