I appreciate that people love the Uber experience what with the conversation that they previously didn't want with taxi drivers and bottles of water and all that, but they are a greasy company.

Again, ultimately it's not really the customer's issue to care about ethics, as we're just paying money to get somewhere and the cheapest, best option is what the masses will take, but what they're doing is taking something that isn't legal to be doing, and putting all the liability on the driver.

The reason they remain in good standing with the public is because of exactly what you see in this thread; People in most cities are so irate with taxi service that Uber is a complete breath of fresh air to the user. The drivers however are not wise at all to be working for this company, they're playing with fire and I suspect we'll eventually see a case of this in Calgary at some point.
