Yesterday the ridesharing service, Uber X, was suspended due to the government\u2019s new extremely negative bill which was recently passed in parliament. This is a development KEFiM views as a temporary defeat for freedom<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For us, Uber X\u2019s operation, as well as other ridesharing and participatory economy applications are a significant factor in our path to liberty. In this direction, amongst other relative actions we\u2019ve taken, we have in the last few months translated and published in Greek on the liberal.gr<\/a> website a series of articles from foreign think tanks relating to the subject. Today is a good opportunity to remember them.<\/p>\n
