Software isn't the only investment they do though. They also invest in electric car companies (which prompted Musk to threaten to go private), companies that do major infrastructure/construction, industrial manufacturing, virtual reality and machine learning, chemicals and materials, aerospace, etc. Not using an app is easy, but if you really want to escape them you'll have a fairly hard time doing so. They even own 25% of Arm Holdings, so better toss that cell phone and tablet.
Same here, I didn't realize that Saudi Arabia was a huge investor. That sickens me.
Don't worry, they own some Lyft too.
Less, though. So Lyft it is. Not that there’s really any way you can ever control who owns shares of a public company, but if the government or its proxy is on record as a large shareholder, that’s something.
Neither are public companies.
Ok thanks, that makes the decision easier then.
Back to yellow cab, the bastion of human rights.
Yellow cab kinda sucks though... most people weigh multiple factors and aren’t as inflexible as you imply.
“Activism” without sacrificing convenience. Perfect. I suppose the really important part is that you get to tell your friends why they’re not as woke as you whenever they get an Uber.
It’s interesting seeing people admit to their fake outrage nowadays.
I wonder how many forgo products made in communist countries?
