    Oh you want cheaper fares?

    You’ll get an another stupid app for you phone instead!! It’ll track you and buy the cheapest available ticket automatically!! (The ticket still is expensive)

      Or, it’ll track you and figure out when you’re desperate for a ride and jack up the prices. Airlines already do this, transit is the next logical step!

        Wait what? Companies are allowed to use your data to boost the price for you individually when they know you’re desperate? That is some seriously dystopian shit if you’re not joking. Sets a pretty fucked precedent too.
