This Uber story, where scandals just kept dropping struck me as very suspicious. Like Google just randomly got CCed by a supplier? You want me to believe that?

I was suspicious but who could be behind it, and why? Who is telling people to air the dirt that's undoubtedly very real, but that they have been just sitting on for a long time, at this particular moment?
I recently learned that Kalanick is very close to Trump, and given that this started just after the election that would seem the likeliest explanation.
- fred_is_fred 10y agoAre you claiming that Jeff Jones applied for a took a job with Uber just so he could resign 6 months later to create a controversy?
- throwaway3331 10y agoNo, I didn't mean to imply that. I'd say either he is not part of the shadiness at all, or he left because someone applied pressure on him recently. But this is just my guesswork. (Switching account because I didn't store the old password... Wrote this password down)
- toast0 10y agoPeople in general send attachments to the wrong people, add the wrong person on a thread fairly often, or add someone to a thread on purpose without thinking about what was in all the quoted stuff that shouldn't be shared with that person. It's totally believable that it happened on accident. It also could have been a plausible accident on purpose by the person at the supplier. Even if the supplier disclosed on purpose though, it doesn't excuse the apparent conduct that was discovered because of the disclosure.
