I just want to point out that posting about how wrong Uber is on HN, but then still using them, doesn't help anyone.
If you feel they are in the wrong, do not use Uber until they update their policies and actions.

That's not true though. You're still not effecting the change that would result from you yourself taking action. In your example, you're shy the result of 1/3 of possible change.
I agree with that.
That said, I do agree with the spirit of what you're saying- wherever I can, I've taken Lyft instead of Uber for at least a year, after the last shady thing Uber did (it's happened so many times I've lost track)
