Then you live disconnected from the european news... googled in 3 seconds:

[FRANCE] http://www.capital.fr/bourse/actualites/blablacar-uber-sont-...

[SPAIN] http://www.elmundo.es/comunidad-valenciana/2016/04/14/570f66...

[UK] http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/science-technology/60586...

[NETHERLANDS] http://www.nu.nl/internet/4268012/autodeeldienst-blablacar-w...

etc...

Paid media coverage is a far cry from regular people actually using/talking about it. I've never heard of them.

Loads of people use it for going to/from UK-France as it's generally the cheapest method (both for drivers and passengers).

it's super popular in France, at the very least.
