World’s Fare

Uber has been banned in the Indian capital following reports of an alleged rape of a female customer. Uber has been seen by some as a safer mode of transport for women in India. I can’t imagine the complexities associated with growing a company this quickly. And I’m not sure anyone else can either.

+ In a controversial move, Uber has started operations in Portland. They can expect retaliation from Portland Commissioner Steve Novick: “They think they can just come in here and flagrantly violate the law? This is really amazing. Apparently, they believe they’re gods.” (God doesn’t have that kind of funding.)
