Violation of privacy laws is one thing and bad enough in itself. But let's not forget that Uber violates various taxi laws as well. In Denmark, just now, the state prosecutor has formally prosecuted Uber for colluding to violate the taxi laws. So far, different Uber drivers have received fines and those fines have now been tried in appellate courts that upheld the fines. Now it's Uber's turn for its part in the violations.
I am not a big fan of those taxi laws, but I am not a fan of billion dollar corporations just doing as they are pleased either. They seem to have no regard for laws.
- sdoering 10y agoDidn't the Uber execs exactly state this publicly - that they are willing to brake the laws that they see are hindering innovation and a disruption? I remember having read something like this but am unable to find it in my archives.
