Yeah, you’re exactly right. Uber’s big play was to centralize the grey-market and skim off the top (though they are losing money while at it). Uber is illegal in many places just like gypsy cabs, because that’s essentially what it is. Like you say, they are trying to have it both ways; to be illegal and legit at the same time. It’s impossible to try and legitimize the grey-market without succumbing to regulation– that’s just how it works.
