Remember: If you're not in the USA, then US law doesn't protect your privacy! And US privacy law is nothing like EU privacy law.

Has Uber considered reforming as a European company, under EU data protection law? That would a nice way to show that you take privacy very seriously.

If Uber tries this in Australia, someone will file a complaint with our privacy commissioner and then Uber will be very, very sorry.
