#2I'm not even sure that 'accuses' should be in the title given that Uber have already admitted that they did it. Pretty shady, IMO.

#3I love it, great scrappiness from the local team. As CEO i'd have a good chuckle, and tell them to tone it down a bit.
Generous of the article to refer to Gett as a "rival" and not a clone.

#4Order forms provided to CNNMoney show that more than a dozen Uber employees were involved, including community managers, operations managers, Uber's general manager, and the company's social media strategist. So much for blaming "our New York team".
Why does the bit at the end discuss California law? This happened in New York.

Because Uber is so crazily innovative that no-one else would ever think about doing it? Come on. It's a car service with a smartphone app. There's a reason there are at least a dozen companies doing it.

Because for whatever reason CNN decided to call a CA based law firm to interview them and of course a CA lawyer is going to know first and foremost about CA law.

#7Between this and how they handled the girl who was killed by an Uber driver on New Year's Eve in San Francisco...my opinion of them has taken a decided turn for the worse in the past few weeks. And for both, I can't help but think that company culture is set from the top.

Was Uber really the 'first'? Lyft a similar service came out of zimride.com which was doing ride sharing as early as 2007 though perhaps not through a smart phone in real time.

Because they saw the success Uber has experienced and wanted some of the pie?
