On: Rideshare website ruled illegal

My partner's reaction to this was similar but converse: "finally, hitchhiking murderers no longer have wait out in awful weather!"

I mean, this is all hyperbole today. Do I think this is the way deregulation should work, with someone just up and deciding to ignore it and forcing some ad hoc response? No. Do I think it's a big enough deal right now to waste time outlawing? No. Would I fund it? No.

You do realize that usually its the hitchhiker that gets murdered by the person with the car.

Yes, I believe that is his point, and the reason I used the word "converse". :P
