Greed is an answer. If the owner doesn't care about the bike, then force him to at least mark the place and postulate "finder's keepers". I am sure locals will find the way to get those machines out -- they aren't useless.
-
But as the article says, it's the stolen bikes that are dumped, not the legitimately hired ones.

Imo the article is not good in defining theft here, these bikes lie all around the city and my guess is that when they are hard to reach (like in a river) the company just counts them as stollen.
This is just a company with a very shit work model avoiding responsibility for polluting the environment.

Yeah, I haven't read the article :)

This is why we can't have nice things
I'm not convinced they're "nice things"
These and the electric scooters are dumped all over the city. The company that owns them couldn't give a shit.
They're a poorly thought out alternative to public transport.
They are nice things, and a great and convenient alternative to cars. The problem is simply that some people are shit.
