#3What's the deal with all the Forbes links redirecting to welcome? How do I stop this?
I tried checking the "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page" box in Firefox, but it doesn't appear to be stopping it.
Presumably too many people are starting to use things like "Google Sent Me".

#4Is this an Uber thing? I didn't see it mentioned.
This is a much older fight in NYC than Uber. They're probably involved in a good number of the cars in question in recent years, but a back-and-forth over to what extent to tolerate vs. crack down on unlicensed taxi services has been going on for decades. The general category is often called by the somewhat racist term "gypsy cabs".

Uber wasn't explicitly mentioned, but it just sounds like the TLC is overly trigger happy in seizing cars, presumably because of the uptake in services like Lyft and Uber who in the TLC's eyes are skirting around the law.

Can we just ban submissions from sites like this?

This is Forbes signalling to me that they no longer wish to be relevant to me.

The authoritarians that run NYC are tremendously contemptuous of the common man. See: anything Bloomberg has ever done.
