So-called "sharing economy"
This term is increasingly used to describe innovative, distributed enterprises. But as I see it, many of these business models can't reasonably be described as "sharing". For example: "ride sharing" companies like Uber and Lyft. In these cases little to nothing is being shared. The cars belong to the drivers (who have to pay for their upkeep out of pocket), and the organizational structure is centralized instead of peer-to-peer. So I'm wondering how CAS and Appropedia can handle these topics in an clearer way. "Gig economy" is more precise, but doesn't accurately describe some of these enterprises which don't hire any human front line workers. --Ethan (talk) 00:05, 4 April 2017 (PDT)
