It is no different from when someone leaves any other item of value on your property. It's not yours and there is a legal procedure for dealing with it. If you try to do so in a manner that is not legal then that puts you in far greater legal jeopardy than the person who left it on your property.

This is no different from someone blocking your driveway with a car. And like when someone parks a car illegally, you're not allowed to just take it or destroy it. You have to go through proper procedures to get it moved even if it is a major headache for you.

Likely the people who leave them there don't realize that they're causing any issue (based on the image it does look like the people who put them there attempted to put them in an out of the way location). If you go through the app it will almost certainly resolve the issue faster and more permanently than any other method.

Who says I'm not upset we give things to car owners for free?

But the analogy to this isn't your personal car parking on the street, it's more comparable to a rental car facility parking their cars in your driveway.

If you look at the Infinity Homes website they don’t list the newbury, and only show two developments in the south hills that are active. You are comparing an old price to a current price. During the last festival of homes, I think it was 2019, I stopped at an infinity home to see how a different tax bracket lives and the rep told me the average home they build is in excess of $900k. By now that numbers probably over a million.

I mean, what do you expect to happen if you have an issue with something? Just get really really mad about it and your brainwaves will alert some regional manager in the Lyft offices to come remove them for you?

You can make an account and remove them with a report and it takes like 45 seconds to do so. The entire world isn’t tip-toeing around your particular pet peeves, nor do they know them (let alone give a shit about them) just because you’re peeved in that moment.

For what’s it worth, you’ll lower the specific metric of uses per user. It’ll just look like actual customers are using their service less and less.

Having 10,000 app downloads and 5,000 active users looks better than 20,000 app downloads and 5,000 active users.
