Who are these smooth-talking scammers that can guide a regular-ass user to jump through hoops in settings to install a malicious app?
you would be extremely surprised. I think lemmy users fail to realize that not everyone has an IT job and is a sys admin.

- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 1 week ago:
Do you think someone will change their gender legally just so they can make like $15 extra on uber (driver’s perspective) or to get into “female only cars”? (passenger perspective)
- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 1 week ago:
Anyone can break any law or regulation, doesnt mean that we give up laws and regulations.
And likely not. Most services already ask you about your gender (even like reddit or tumblr) so I assume that will suffice and we wont have “ID verifying gender”
Or maybe some conservative hack will propose ID verified gender, who knows.

Suddenly the concern trolls love pretending like they care about their local ride-sharing economy because a few women will be more selective sometimes.

this place never fails with its reddit-isms and lack of nuance. If you want data, look at SA data and see the demographics of the victims vs the demographics of the perpetrators. This is a tool to give peace of mind and potentially lower SA on ubers.
- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 1 week ago:
I don’t think this will meaningfully hurt male drivers. Most women likely won’t use this option, or they will in scenarios like being drunk and alone only (so very situational). People are pretending like 50% of the population just chose to self segregate at all times for no reason.
- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 1 week ago:
Asking “what gender do you identify as?” isn’t tyranny and does not involve uploading your ID. Pretty much most services I know ask “what is your gender?”
- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 1 week ago:
It’s not stereotypes if statistically, most people who are SAd are women and most of the perpetrators are men. This isn’t just “peace of mind.”
Ask a woman who is drunk after the club late at night if she would prefer a male or female driver when she’s alone in an uber/cab and 99% will say yes.
But people will say like “oh but statistically some race commits more crime, is racism ok?” it’s not the same because patriarchy is global and is found in most cultures, sadly. So a woman wouldnt exactly be much safer with a white man vs a black man.
- Comment on Fascism bad. 1 week ago:
I appreciate the effort but conservatives are not reading any studies.
- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 1 week ago:
I assume they can still choose male drivers if there are no female ones available.
- Comment on Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US 1 week ago:
This is a good thing if you ask most women
