In 2019, the town of Innisfil in Ontario, Canada made the headlines: the municipality opted to replace public transit with the subsidized #Uber rides. Ellie Ruggles tells us how this unfortunate partnership has unfolded. 1/5 #platformeconomy
Like many other North-American towns, Innisfil struggles to accommodate the aging population and people who don't drive. After a series of public consultations, the city estimated the cost of a new bus at $272,000. Uber and local taxi companies asked some $100,000. 2/5
Uber was chosen as a contractor because they were cheaper, and had a platform that could accommodate more than 2 people per ride. Two years in, the city had to limit the number of rides monthly as the local budget was struggling to afford Uber's services at $800,000 ann-ly.3/5

Est-ce que le mot #plateforme est adapté pour décrire ce qui se passe dans l’économie numérique des dernières années ?

Point de départ : les travaux de @TarletonG, qui s’est penché (avant et mieux que d’autres) sur l’utilisation de la notion de plateforme pour qualifier les services contemporains d’appariement algorithmique d’informations, relations, biens et services.
Sa théorie peut être ainsi résumée : le mot plateforme est avant tout une métaphore qui désigne une structure technique, voire une « architecture » (c’est par ailleurs de ce dernier domaine que l’emprunt linguistique s’est fait).
