Comment Soon no uber, or higher fees, only full timers (Score 2) 152

If you think what Uber can do now is : They - Cancel uber in newjersey.... uber drivers will have to go to other states - Not hire part time work for drivers that have an existing job. Only those that can work full time will be hired. - Uber fees will be more expensive in new jersey, passengers pay more. Yeah, chase Uber for taxes! Why not also unionise all those drivers too...? Lets see how well that goes.

Comment Re:The police are armed, the people aren't (Score 1) 55

the app only collates data from other sources and puts it on a map. There is nothing illegal about it... What is utter nonsense is the hk police cybersecurity department being involved and claiming that this app is used to track and attack police. As if protesters go hunting for them.... Police arrive in buses, vans and trucks and then unleash on the public. that is how it is.

Comment Here in HK, we think Apple is selling us out. (Score 2) 55

Blocking this is app is symbolic as we can still use the website. It is available for Android users... The app itself is useful for non protestors to avoid trouble, because generally you are safe anywhere in HK even surrounded by protesters until the police arrives. Then you can be beaten, shot in the face with tear gas cannisters or, arrested for no reason... and whilst in remand beaten until hospitalised. Apple is also sending our our safe browsing hits are sent to Tencent to tell us what is "safe" Apple risks of having its shops torched smashed up, just like Starbucks franchisee Maxims and others. In HK we know many companies are selling us out as there is only 7.4M of us. In exchange the get access to the china market, so be it, we are already betrayed by those who's moto is "To care and protect". It is heart warming to see Tim Cook called on his China brown nosing by Senators. What TC doesn't understand is that iPhones will keep selling in China regardless of what he does. He doesn't understand that China market. Like before everyone will fly to HK to get an iPhone. Stay Strong HK!
