I really do not think this is true. It may vary geographically, but I can say unequivocally that everyone I know in my city (Portland, Oregon) is aware of and annoyed by the apparent sexist culture and shady law-evading that has become associated with Uber. And it has definitely altered their usage habits. And they talk about it. A lot. Having entered the market as a heralded White Knight, doing battle with entrenched and crummy Taxi companies, Uber had a high standard to live-up to. Yet they keep shooting themselves in the tires.

Whether that actually changes the behavior of all those who are signaling when they aren't being observed by others in their in-group is another matter entirely. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signalling_theory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signalling_theory
