Also heard there still is some shady taxi company, named G7, that has an almost monopoly of the french taxi market.<p>Not to defend Uber, but I still don&#x27;t believe you can solve anti-liberal policies by just breaking everything in a niche market like this one, and pretend it&#x27;s for the sake of progress.<p>Also, the day Uber rides get taxed like all other taxis, and end up costing as much because they align with french policies, I&#x27;m sure Uber will quickly vanish.<p>Many french medias already talk about the uberisation of society. I don&#x27;t know if that&#x27;s already the case in other places. But I think it&#x27;s totally normal to see people getting angry at an american company who makes profit thanks to an economic model which is not really compatible.<p>There is already a lot of talk and disagreement over inequality, so in my mind, it&#x27;s again normal for people to relate this to be another form of capitalistic looting.
