Your analogy does not work because UPS drivers and Pilots are either salaried or hourly employees. Their contract is very clear and also covered by employment law. Uber treats drivers as contractors and then makes certain representations about the payment structure. The allegations here are the equivalent of airlines telling pilots that they get paid a percentage of all the fares, then lying about the total fares.
