Uber isn't a monopoly. For all the scummy things that Uber has done, they have avoided the most scummy thing they could do to become a monopoly: driver lock-in, making their drivers commit to only drive for them and not for Lyft.
Susan Fowler's post has me pretty fed up with Uber, but for some reason greyballing doesn't bother me at all.

Arguably the only reason why is because it would mean they'd have to classify the drivers as employees rather than contractors.
Look up "uber driver incentives". They are clearly working on it, just without going all "second commandment" to protect their "not an employer" status.
