Yep makes me think that the whole UBER thing is related to eliminating people’s ability to have options and implement controls on the population’s ability to move around through Uber’s and Lyft’s applications.

You could be onto something. I’ve never used Uber and have never really understood what all the hype has been about. I mean, although I have my own car and don’t have much reason to use it, I suppose it gives people without transportation another option. But still, there always seemed to be a hype factor involved. Maybe its real value is in tracking people, as you suggest.

This is all speculation, because I really don’t know, but maybe Uber and Lyft’s main source of income comes from selling tracking data rather than the fees they collect from passengers.

The drone car comes and picks you up. You pay with your social credit card. That way [they] will know where you’ve been and when you were there. I’ve seen it many times in movies and shows like Black Mirror.
