Sounds like they want to lose those customers.

Companies have been fucking consumers since the beginning of time and consumers, time and time again, bend over and ask for more. Just look at all of the most successful companies in the world and ask yourself, are they constantly trying to deliver the most amazing service possible for their customers or are they trying to find new ways to fuck them at every available opportunity?

But they know their competitions are doing to adopt the same type of tech, so where are those customers going to go when they have no choice?

I use an app called GoMore in some places in Europe that allows you to rent cars from other peers. The rental process is cheaper and faster--everything is done through the app--and you avoid these shady corpo practices.

For now till the shit that happens with Airbnb happens there. With the corporations just renting all the cars.
