Uber drivers in UK get employee status

See this story. Two Uber drivers claimed they should be seen as employees, not independent contractors. And this UK employment tribunal agreed. They found Uber's case absurd on its face, recognizing it was just twisted logic to get out of treating their workers as the employees they are. Hopefully this case will reverberate throughout the world and companies like Uber will be seen as the greedy and abusive overlords they are.
