I've also noticed my phone displaying recording in progress whenever the Uber app is completely turned off.
I'm tech savvy and NO the Uber app isn't running in the background as I have the end processes when app is closed, yet when I click on the active recording in DISPLAYED on my screen it tells me it's Uber using my camera and recording while the app is off.
Uber is invading the DRIVERS privacy by recording whenever the Uber app is completely closed😡
Tampa is the biggest city with a much higher population than the surrounding areas.
UBER CEO DEFINITELY needs to get indicted by the federal government for ripping people off both riders and drivers
The UBER CEO is also deactivating the wait timer on the driver side of the Uber app yet still charging the riders wait time fee.
UBER support used to look at the rider ticket and see how much they're charged for wait time and forward what's owed over to the drive.
For the last 18 months support will tell Uber drivers they can't be paid because the wait timer NEVER activated and UBER support acknowledges this is a known technical issue with the Uber app.
This is nothing but a national scam being perpetrated by the over CEO he's bringing in millions of dollars every hour because depending on your region every driver's wait time will stop working for hours on end Uber does this on purpose.
Not only is it scamming the driver is also scamming Uncle Sam as Uber's not reporting this money is income.
Yet whenever we as drivers get our 1099 we are expected to pay taxes on a make believe number made up by Uber saying riders pay x amount for fares how can this possibly be true when it is hidden from the driver how much the rider has paid?
UBER CEO and COO NEED to get arrested and thrown under the penitentiary for robbery and various white collar crimes.
Uber disables the wait timer, Uber still bills and charges the rider for wait time WITHOUT passing on the wait time fee to the driver.
That's millions of $$$$$ UBER has and will continue to take in TAX free as it's a scam that's Uncle Sam can't tax.
UBER has another scam where you start driving from the pickup to the drop-off destination; THEN you'll see this appear on your Uber app;
"REROUTING TO FIND A FASTER ROUTE"
Whenever this happens the Uber app refuses to give you credit for the miles driven from the pick-up 📍 and instead will ONLY calculate the distance and fare rate from the point where "REROUTING TO FIND A FASTER ROUTE" appeared on your screen!!!!
This is another way Uber is collecting tax free money under the table via an app manipulation.
This my friends equals millions of dollars every hour that's also tax free for Uber.
If any State attorneys general read this PLEASE indict UBER CEO and COO ASAP!
