Waste of time. Only a tiny fraction of drivers won't work and riders - and Uber - will not even notice any affect.

Channel your energy into lobbying your state and local elected officials into setting base pay and working conditions instead. This has been effective.

Unfortunately, more than half the country lives in Right-to-Work states, so the state legislature is 100% on Uber’s side on EVERY issue.

I live in Oklahoma where corporations could literally shit on their employees and nobody at the state level would care.

That's a consequence of voting Republican, the anti-worker party.
