Last-minute California ruling means Uber and Lyft won't shut down today:
A California judge has granted Uber and Lyft an emergency reprieve from an order requiring them to treat their drivers as employees. The companies were facing a Thursday deadline to comply with the order. Earlier today, Lyft announced that it would be forced to shut down in the state at midnight tonight.
[...] Uber had warned that it was likely to do the same if the courts didn't delay enforcement of the law.
[...] The judge's emergency stay means that Lyft and Uber will be able to keep operating under their current model while they continue litigating whether the new law applies to them.

In spite of the world's idea about Australian and East European countries, one actually get exposed to "rail..., buses, private limo buses, cabs, car services, and of course rental cars and privately owned vehicles" while living there.
(hint: those were rhetorical questions. Shoulda shouted "false dichotomy" instead of asking them)
