Uber Co-Founder Travis Kalanick Said to Plan Sale of 29% of Stake
Happy for him. I can only imagine how much being ousted from a company he created and raised to its current level must have hurt.<p>I do not look fondly at what a pain local transport was in cities without public transport (and even those with), and it is Travis (yes, Travis first, Uber second) that led this paradigm shift.<p>We can debate about Uber's business practices until the cows come home, but this is undeniable. And yes, other so-called 'nicer' / 'ethical' rideshare companies who didn't have to get their hands dirty because they profited from the ecosystem that Uber created exist precisely because of that.
