This is a common sense safety feature... make sure your employees are who they say they are. How is this violating anyone's privacy?

- shostack 11y agoExactly. If this is JUST used on drivers, I'm cool with it, and would welcome it because it means my ride is safer.
- awinter-py 11y agoEven if it's used on passengers -- your credit card is basically a form of ID. I don't use uber but I assume they don't support bitcoin / cash. You were already not private.
- objclxt 11y agoI actually found out a few days ago that in some countries Uber does accept cash (like Singapore - https://www.uber.com/cities/singapore/ https://www.uber.com/cities/singapore/). But it's still not anonymous, obviously, because your user profile is still tied to the ride.
- toomanybeersies 11y agoIsn't that one of the main safety features of uber? At least it is according to the drivers I talk to. You know who's getting in the car, so if they run (in places that support cash), or if they damage your car, you know who they are, it's a safety thing.
