They've paid out more than $1,300,000 in bounties, you can view all their payouts here: https://hackerone.com/uber/hacktivity?sort_type=latest_discl...

This has nothing to do with anything.

Good to know they aren't actually deadbeats on bugbounties and can chalk up this example to honest disagreement.

As for the rest, it has to do with everything. Would you trust your application's security to code libraries written by a company with the the allegations hanging over Uber? If there's a chance your customer data might be a strategic asset for Uber?
