Re:Ban women from using taxi apps (Score 2)

An application leaking your name, home address and phone number -- without making it obvious to you that it does so -- would've caused a shitstorm on /. a few years ago, and rightfully so.

Dudes deal with seedy bullshit all the time

Exactly, and that's why these ladies did everyone a favor by protesting so it got fixed. Your red-pill addled mind got so hung up on the word "female" that you missed the rest of the sentence: "making it too easy for taxi drivers to harass [...] customers". Not only have there been leaks, there have been actual cases of customers -- humans -- harassed. It's beyond theoretical at this point, it isn't just whining for the sake of whining.

They can use a yellow cab or whatever was there before Uber. Use that, climb into the back of some grimy cab that smells like stale cigarette smoke driven in all likelihood by some hairy guy that is OF COURSE never going to rape you or make inappropriate comments.

Yellow cabs are using these apps now. So not only are you that unsafe environment, that "hairy guy" has your home adress and phone number.

And then enjoy your rape free environment.

There's no reason to be sarcastic about trying avoid being raped. Rape is problematic for guys too, in prison for example.
