Stop using their services. Call a taxi.
The other day, I saw the first Waymo van in Sacramento.
If I saw the Waymo van, then it saw me, and Waymo infamously shares all its scanning data with law enforcement.
I wasn't doing anything illegal, but that doesn't really matter in the states. Crime here is not about what you did, but who you are. And it's becoming also about what you think.
Thoughtcrime you say?
taxis are worst service though.
You don't think they are the same? Seriously?
Yellow cab doesn’t have dash cam last time I was in one in MYC a couple years ago.
I imagine most of them do these days. Seems like a complete waste of money for any business involved in transporting people in cars to not have dashcams on every car for insurance reasons.
I mean, what year do you think it is? Of course they have dash cams
Some do. That's an idiotic take of why a taxi over an Uber. You don't think that if Uber didn't exist that cabs wouldn't add cameras? Just Google the number of companies that have already added cameras to them.
