"content": "\u003cp>A Chicago disability rights group sued Uber Thursday over wheelchair accessibility, arguing the San Francisco-based mobile ride-hailing company's adherence to federal disability laws \"ranges from token to non-existent\" despite its expanding role in the nation's transportation system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 19-page lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago on behalf of Access Living of Metropolitan Chicago and several individuals, seeks an order requiring that Uber comply with the 1990 Americans With Disabilities Act, or ADA, by making far more wheelchair-accessible vehicles available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That position threatens a return to the isolation and segregation that the disability rights movement has fought to overcome,\" the filing says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Chicago spokeswoman for Uber Technologies Inc. didn't have an immediate comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ADA was considered a landmark in bids for equal rights for the disabled. But both Uber and rival Lyft, which allow customers to use a cellphone app to pay drivers who use their own cars, have argued previously that they are technology, rather than transportation, firms and so aren't subject to ADA mandates. The new suit also seeks a definitive ruling that the ADA does apply to Uber and similar companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber does offer a service called UberWAV, which allows would-be customers to locate vehicles with ramps or lifts. But Thursday's suit says Uber's mobile map frequently indicates that no such vehicles are available anywhere in or near Chicago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suit also alleges that Uber's success in the Chicago market is threatening to reduce the fleet sizes of traditional cab companies, which are subject to stricter accessibility requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=AwrTcdI6YwFYQocAUe0nnIlQ;_ylu=X3oDMTEyNHZ2djU5BGNvbG8DZ3ExBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDQjI3OTVfMQRzZWMDc3I-/RV=2/RE=1476514746/RO=10/RU=https%3a%2f%2fwww.accessliving.org%2f/RK=0/RS=6z8zuqmXiU_7J1GGFgoSqbL3DuY-\">Access Living's\u003c/a> president, Marca Bristo, says the legal action is \"a fight to avoid losing ground, as Uber pushes out existing accessible transportation services, further limiting options for people with disabilities.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an attempt to demonstrate how hard it is for disabled people to utilize Uber, the suit cites data that Uber provided nearly 2 million rides in Chicago in June of last year alone. But it says Uber gave just 14 rides to motorized wheelchair users over a four-year period starting in 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rahnee Patrick, a plaintiff in the case who uses a wheelchair, says the lack of suitable Uber vehicles shouldn't force a couple to travel separately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Going to dinner with my husband should be the same for me as it is for everyone else,\" she said in a statement released by Access Living.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, Uber and advocates for the blind reached a lawsuit settlement in San Francisco in which Uber agreed to require that drivers confirm they understand their legal obligations to transport riders with guide dogs or other service animals. Uber didn't admit any liability and it denied violating any laws.\u003c/p>\n\n",

But both Uber and rival Lyft, which allow customers to use a cellphone app to pay drivers who use their own cars, have argued previously that they are technology, rather than transportation, firms and so aren't subject to ADA mandates.

In other words, what do people mean when they ask: “Why can’t we vote online?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The reason people want internet voting is because they want the convenience to vote at home or vote on their smartphone,” Dill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[soundcloud url=\"https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/286035246\" params=\"color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" iframe=\"true\" /]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I have to agree.

I want to vote anywhere, anytime and on any device.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that’s the case, Dill said the answer is simple: We can’t vote online because our personal devices are too easy to hack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriousbug]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we had online elections, we would never be able to trust the results of those elections,” Dill said. “These systems are just notoriously insecure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you follow the news, you know that our \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnbc.com/2016/06/17/your-smartphone-could-be-hacked-without-your-knowledge.html\">smartphones \u003c/a>and personal computers are constantly getting hacked. While antivirus companies try, no software can stop all viruses. In fact, you might have a virus on your computer right now and not realize it, Dill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now you can imagine the impact on trying to cast a ballot on such a machine,” Dill said. “The technology does not exist for secure online voting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But aren't there places that have voted online?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, but Dill says they’ve \u003cem>all\u003c/em> been hacked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, in 2010, the District of Columbia piloted an internet voting system that was created to allow absentee or overseas voters to cast their ballots online. During the pilot, folks were invited to try and hack the system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SGlH1goPA4&w=560&h=315]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the University of Michigan, Professor \u003ca href=\"https://jhalderm.com/\">J. Alex Halderman\u003c/a> and his students took up the challenge. It took them about 36 hours to change votes. The white hat hackers changed votes and wrote in the names of evil robots and characters from sci-fi movies. The kicker? When people were finished voting, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EF--ldYIBnM\">Michigan fight song\u003c/a> came on. As it turns out, D.C. officials hadn’t noticed until a voter called to tell them about the song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dill is an unlikely soldier in the war against internet voting. He became interested in electronic voting in 2000 during the Florida recount of the Bush versus Gore election. With the failures of punch-card voting exposed, many counties were turning to electronic touch-screen voting machines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dill says he thought it was a good idea but kept hearing conspiracy theories that you can’t audit electronic votes.

While antivirus companies try, no software can stop all viruses. In fact, you might have a virus on your computer right now and not realize it, Dill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now you can imagine the impact on trying to cast a ballot on such a machine,” Dill said. “The technology does not exist for secure online voting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But aren't there places that have voted online?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, but Dill says they’ve \u003cem>all\u003c/em> been hacked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, in 2010, the District of Columbia piloted an internet voting system that was created to allow absentee or overseas voters to cast their ballots online. During the pilot, folks were invited to try and hack the system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/-SGlH1goPA4'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/-SGlH1goPA4'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the University of Michigan, Professor \u003ca href=\"https://jhalderm.com/\">J.

The white hat hackers changed votes and wrote in the names of evil robots and characters from sci-fi movies. The kicker? When people were finished voting, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EF--ldYIBnM\">Michigan fight song\u003c/a> came on. As it turns out, D.C. officials hadn’t noticed until a voter called to tell them about the song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dill is an unlikely soldier in the war against internet voting. He became interested in electronic voting in 2000 during the Florida recount of the Bush versus Gore election. With the failures of punch-card voting exposed, many counties were turning to electronic touch-screen voting machines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dill says he thought it was a good idea but kept hearing conspiracy theories that you can’t audit electronic votes.
