Watch as Uber delivers 15,000 printed protest emails to local authorities.. via horse and cart

Remember that fake report a few years back of how Samsung paid Apple its $1 billion damages in five cent pieces? It was an entertaining story, if a made-up one. Fact is, though, it was somewhat believable, since when big companies want to make a show of dissent, they tend to go all-out. Case in point: Uber. The app-based taxi firm is not happy with the government in Queensland, Australia, which recently passed a law that could see ride-sharing drivers and administrators of such services punished with fines to the tune of AU$23,560. While the firm did manage to persuade bemused customers to send remonstrative emails, they were swiftly blocked. So Uber has taken the obvious step to print out some 15,000 emails and deliver them via horse and carriage!
