I've been curious whether this dataset could be exploited to invade privacy, e.g. by targeting rides to/from from a sensitive address (medical-related, a strip club). Or by cross-checking it with other data, like a private detective comparing a pick-up recorded on a security camera and looking up where they went to in this database. I guess this makes it easier to find out.

Addresses are indeed anonymised somewhat, so it might be difficult.
