Uber's Ride-Sharing Platform

Uber disrupted global transportation but through methods that included using "Greyball" software to evade regulators, a toxic corporate culture exposed in 2017, the "God View" tool that tracked riders including journalists, and a business model that classified drivers as contractors to avoid employment benefits. The Uber Files leak in 2022 revealed the company secretly lobbied world leaders including Emmanuel Macron to bypass taxi regulations. Uber redefined urban transport — and corporate ethics violations.
