It really is incredible how the opinion of Uber has dropped. I used to love Uber - and still do love the Uber service - but now I can't stand the company. I used to buy in to the whole corrupt taxi industry narrative, but now I feel like a fool for believing it (even if it was true at the beginning). It's a shame that there's no alternative, at least that I'm aware of, to UberEXEC/UberLUX.

I feel like Uber could have been a great, albeit smaller, company had they concentrated on their upmarket service. Aiming to be cheaper than taxis is just a race to the bottom - but there are many people who are willing to pay more in exchange for a better experience.
