are we all forgetting just last week (i think at least) both companies accused each other of the same thing here... only Uber's documentation about it leaked.

Seems both are up to no good.



The whole premise of this article is that "siphoning drivers away from Lyft" is wrong. Its not. Isn't "not poaching" what everyone is up in arms about when Apple and Google did it?


Making a better offer is fine. Using your competitor's service to summon their employees so that you can make a better offer is, at least, impolite.


Canceling rides is the bigger problem.


Exactly. That's more than impolite, it's unfair IMO. If the only way they can offer a better service is by screwing with the competition, well, they aren't doing a very good job then. Otherwise they could spend their time looking for ways to improve their services.
