in Milano last weekend they were about 200 hundred of them, with banners

they exploded a few bombs inside the Wired festival ('bombe carta' they
are loud, noone gets hurt usually, just routine for demonstrations in
italy) and managed to deny the Uber representative from talking as
scheduled.

OTOH this Italian Uber representative is quite an ass: in the past she
has argued against them with very snobbish calls to the fact they have
no education degree and that Uber is about smart people with a brain.
As a result she completely lost popular sympathy to Uber.

so I'm not sure the narrative unfolding is going the way we think once
it hits the streets, unless the manager cast stops acting like a cast.
