#Uber makes major changes to #California rides as gig-work law takes effect. #Passengers may find more trips cancelled by #drivers as a result! #Transportation #technology #AB5 https://t.co/c5VbgJEZz6 via @sfchronicle

In which Uber essentially is forced to become a taxi company with an app from the end user standpoint in California.
— Joey Krug (@joeykrug) January 8, 2020
1/ No longer upfront prices
2/ More cancellations of trips if driver doesn't feel like going there
3/ No price protection/flex cancelshttps://t.co/bOtb1RrcoN

This is a win for TNC drivers, finally getting treated like cabbies ?.

What these articles are missing is this is a financial loss for uber. These policies are not new, they were standard but uber changed them to increase $.#AB5@CSaid https://t.co/t05hB6mab4 via @sfchronicle
Your Uber ride will soon change: Uber overhauls California ride-hailing in bid to avoid AB5 forcing driver reclassification as employees https://t.co/pFdm6B8y37
— Carolyn Said (@CSaid) January 8, 2020
Sounds like AB5 is causing Uber to actually treat drivers as the independent contractors they’ve been claiming they are

Great news in my book! https://t.co/X6OW8k5d2L
#AB5 makes Uber less safe and convenient for passengers in California, encourages discrimination against minority neighborhoods. https://t.co/fRCOqvLFex

Congrats California on killing @Uber and @lyft in your state and for eliminating thousands of p/t gig jobs. Awesome work. ? https://t.co/m7eQ3wypbP

Have you seen the changes Uber is making in California? This just goes to show that these companies can change our working conditions at any time and for any reason. That's why we need a union contract! https://t.co/CHDz2yHasP

Thank you #AB5 and @LorenaSGonzalez you are a miracle worker!!! @Uber has a ways to go still but this is progress for sure. You did what no one else could... make @Uber listen and act!!! I love it!!! https://t.co/EuSHtZRaHK

If you're taking an $Uber in California it's up to you to now monitor the driver to make sure they are taking the fastest route, as they are now incentivized to rip you off. Excellent work @GavinNewsom https://t.co/yJD4FOKZR6

I honestly think that nothing is going to change with #rideshare or #gigeconomy jobs until the majority of the drivers and workers stand up and demand better.

How long could @Uber and @Lyft survive if a majority of drivers stopped driving?https://t.co/fKAxtjmOUf

Next time you hear “the gig economy”, translate that to “companies that clock out minimum wage workers when business is slow.” Incredibly clear way to describe this form of exploitation, courtesy of @profgalloway https://t.co/7jl7yO55zC pic.twitter.com/ZGcQfnUEMS

Uber is overhauling its California operations. In what many suspect is a response to #AB5, updates include fares changing from fixed to estimated, the ability for riders to schedule trips with specific drivers, and changes to Uber Rewards benefits. https://t.co/IoqiGarmAH

Passengers will now see an estimated price range, rather than a firm fixed price when they request a trip. Prices will still be calculated based on the existing time and distance rates. https://t.co/v1qVp0f8AV @CSaid
