    I'm not for or against the strategy of Uber. But as a business case, I am sure the 190M fine they shelled out is just part of their operating expenses. Mani lang sa kanila yun.

    no need to lecture me on uber's business model

    as if i don't know what uber's business model is

    Uber has been called "innovative" and "disruptive" but they're nothing but a taxi business

    rule breaking is part of their business model

    they go into cities all over the world, recruit as many cars and drivers as quickly as they can, and sell rides to the public without permission from local regulators

    they deal with regulators after regulators catch up to what uber is doing

    yan ang business model ng uber

    Uber doesn't ask for permission

    Uber asks for forgiveness


    --

    they can afford that 190M fine coz they have 6-7 billions of dollars cash on hand right now

    most of that money is investor money

    uber is not profitable yet

    they're burning cash to stay in business

    it just so happens they have lots of investors willing to hand them money

    those investors are looking forward to uber's IPO
