So imagine a soaring, cavernous sanctuary with a podium on the altar up front. Mark's Poetry Project in a 200-year-old church in Lower Manhattan. It's a 10-hour-long marathon of performances- I call it a marathon- at the St. This was during an event that I go to every year, if I can make it, on New Year's Day. There were hundreds of people in the audience. Dramatic is the operative word because it was during a performance. There was a moment this year when I watched someone break the rules right in front of me in the most dramatic way.

A spokesperson for all of sub-Saharan Africa wrote back, saying, in part, "Repeat canceling by either a driver or rider could be flagged by our fraud technology, which will then result in an investigation." She also said it's not safe to go off app for the passengers or the drivers- which, for the record, some of the drivers will tell you too that they don't like to do it, because having a record of the trip is safer for them. I asked Uber if I could talk to a company rep in Kenya about going karura. One of the protesters referred to it as economic sabotage- i.e., until we get more rules governing Uber, we're going to break some.
