I read it. I think they're a long way from dominating much of anything in some ways, given how easy it is for regulators to shut them down.
I'm not anti-Uber or at least anti-disruption for the taxi industry. Here in Italy the taxi lobby is strong and very, very much against any kind of change or liberalization, and can use pretty nasty tactics themselves when they feel threatened.
No they have really fucked themselves. They need to be getting city councils on their side. They're not. They are getting shut down left, right and centre at the moment. They don't dominate anywhere except maybe SF?
Taxi companies dominate the taxi industry, it seems to me: they're shutting down Uber in more and more places.
