I've got a tonne of angry dudes in my mentions about an article that mentions Uber and taxis. I'm normally happy to discuss stuff like this but not when people are rude from the get-go.
Accusing me of being "bought & paid for" & "taking the Uber length" is disgusting.
Googling my name plus Uber gives you some tweets and articles that mention Uber, yes! But you don't seem to have even read them, quite a lot were negative because I'm a person with nuanced opinions, rather than some blanket "Uber = good" doublethink
Freelance tech journalists get paid fuck all & it's hilariously out of touch to claim we're being bankrolled by big tech.

On Gizmodo, I'm assigned stories & generally have about half an hour to write a piece. If you want more research, consider funding journalism, it's dying.
That's all I'll be saying on this because like I said, if you're rude out of the gate, you get nothing.
