Interesting Bloomberg piece on ‘peak car’ that suggests that the ownership bloom may be coming off the rose. If the technology (and pricing) gets there, then, especially in larger cities, on-demand self-driving vehicle services will probably have a place

Not only technology and pricing, also the legal framework ist a huge question mark.
In the US it can vary from state to state, making it even tougher. For example, New York was only opened to Lyft and Uber about 2 years ago, and Turo remains unavailable in NY after 6 years
AirBnB, Uber and others are having trouble in Europe.
I have to confess that I am a hypocrite: I enjoy the cheap prices I get through AirBnB. But it’s tax evation, bad for appartment prices and not really within the law. Same for Uber. Was ist France that shut Uber down?
