That's very good news!

The more companies start accepting and integrating bitcoin to there system the more popular it will become.

What is good news?
The thread is about making a petition for Uber and Lyft to accept bitcoins.
None of them is accepting BTC right now and none is currently planing.
Are we starting another amazon fake story?

Last I heard Uber already is accepting Bitcoin for tipping, but I did not know they are planning to accept it for regular payments. That is very cool.  Cool

It'a a tip app that was integrated by some uber drivers.
They made it more like a pr stunt.

If they do choose to work with btc they would have to make some sort of wallets mimicking a prepaid card where your funds are locked when you order a cab.
It's a bit complicated and it will have to take into account the exchange rate, a lot of security, and a lot of legal papers as uber will hold some of your funds just like paypal is doing.
