#Uber é condenada por caso de estupro por motorista
"documentos internos da empresa, incluindo alguns mostrando que a Uber havia sinalizado sua corrida como de maior risco para um incidente grave de segurança momentos antes de ela ser buscada. A Uber nunca a alertou, com um executivo testemunhando que teria sido "impraticável" fazê-lo."
Do you remember when #Uber posted the N word in Twitter because they completely trusted in what #sprinklr was doing?

Since Uber entered Japan in 2014, the country, one of the world’s largest taxi markets, has remained a fortress. Recently, demographic pressures have begun to force the government to change. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/01/24/uber-japan-hot-springs-town/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #kaga #onsen #uber #tourism

@havvyhh2 Understand the that driving force is government control over mobility. In a world of robocars, the government not only tracks all movement, but can prevent you from going where they don't want you to go, and take you where you don't want to go. That's really what's driving this. No pun intended. Law enforcement is drooling over this tech. Pure fascism, courtesy of the Big Tech Billionaire CEOs.
@lauren @havvyhh2 that is so different from #Uber, because there is a low wage worker in the car who will definitely drive you where you want to go without any violation of your privacy, right? No way the #lyft app would refuse a request to ride to a protest, or sell their records to #Palantir? The guardians of democracy, the public transport fast pass because, no data. Right?
We do need to do something about the #Ring and #Flock and #location protections. Laws. We need laws!

Queer research participants wanted!
As part of my PhD #research, I’m conducting a qualitative #study on political self-perception among #queer individuals who work as #delivery #riders, #Uber drivers, etc.
If you identify as queer, speak English or German, and have experience working in any of the above, I’d love to hear your perspective!

A California jury says Uber is not liable for the sexual assault of a woman who said she was attacked by her driver on a ride she ordered through the app. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/10/01/uber-us-trial-driver-sexual-assault/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #uber #us #sexcrimes
"For example, I think Google [NZ] pays out about 95-97% of all the revenue that it earns [in "service fees" to the parent company] ... and FaceBook would be very similar, Uber would be. The percentages vary, but it's most of it, in all cases."

The app doesn’t let you contest the fare & doesn’t let you connect to a human. 😡

What a massively sleazy company Uber is -- see this breakdown of how it profits by systematically screwing drivers and riders.

Take a taxi, if you can still find one.
@dangillmor I have the impression that #Uber works out quite well for customers as well as drivers in #Brazil. The drivers appear pretty happy with their work.
