I assume that you also had launched similar campaign to boycott company like Apple who have been documented to squeeze out the life of their suppliers’ workers and that for some reason you ignored all the not-so-ethical moves of Uber before (like harassing drivers who rejected calls and more), but might I ask you how did you verify Susan’s story in that exact terms?

I am not telling she lied or she made it all up, but I am wondering why, while most newspaper correctly still speak of “alleged misbehaviour” on Uber’s part, you can be so sure that Uber is a widespread evil when there has not been a trial or a single legal investigation to prove it. Not even the screenshots she mentioned, to my knowledge, came to be published.

I am a bit worried about this climate of witch-hunting that always assumes truth is 100% in a given subject and completely polarizes the attention of very susceptible people.
