Taxis/cabs are legal. Also, perhaps because of age, I tend to view taxis and cabs as phone numbers you call for a car to show up (or go to a taxi stand), whereas I see rideshare as reserve via an app.
I think ride share really just means a vehicle that is used not solely for commercial purposes
They are legal if you follow the regulations. The problem with the “rideshare” companies is that they don’t. We should just call them “unregulated taxis” rather than pretending that they are a different service. I think just about every taxi company these days is on some app or another (often the same that call unregulated cabs in countries that actually got their shit together and banned the unregulated ones).

I’d like to point out this probably would have taken another 10-15 years to achieve had it not been for the disruption of said ridesharing apps.

They literally changed the name of the company from UberCab to duck regulation.

Just because there’s a inconvenience for consumers doesn’t mean you make workers suffer instead of fixing the problem.
