     I would certainly prefer open-source P2P ride-sharing apps, which
     simply
     coordinate drivers and riders, with no central profit-stealing
     corporations. However, I don't believe that Uber or Lyft are
     profiting
     yet. They're relying on venture capital to build demand. They also
     provide legal assistance to drivers, and pay fines. I'm not sure how
     they deal with vehicles taken through civil forfeiture. So how would
     a
     pure P2P system deal that those issues?
     As long as hitchhiking is legal, one could argue that ride sharing
     is
     just a technological improvement. Back in the day, I recall ride
     boards,
     where you could arrange long-distance trips. And isn't an app
     equivalent
     to a bulletin board?
