**Uber Technologies, Inc.** is an American multinational [transportation](/source/Transportation) company that provides [ride-hailing services](/source/Ridesharing_company), [courier](/source/Courier) services, [food delivery](/source/Food_delivery), and [freight transport](/source/Freight_transport).[1] It is headquartered in [San Francisco](/source/San_Francisco), California, and operates in approximately 70 countries and 15,000 cities worldwide.[1] It is the largest [ridesharing company](/source/Ridesharing_company) worldwide with over 202 million monthly [active users](/source/Active_users) and 10 million active drivers and couriers. It coordinates an average of 42 million trips and delivery orders per day, and has coordinated 72 billion trips and delivery orders since its inception in 2010.[2] In the fourth quarter of 2025, the company had a take rate (revenue as a percentage of gross bookings) of 29.9% for mobility services and 19.2% for food delivery.[2]

The company has launched or is in the process of launching [robotaxi](/source/Robotaxi) services in several cities worldwide in partnership with operators, software designers, and car manufacturers including [Lucid Motors](/source/Lucid_Motors), [Nuro](/source/Nuro), [Baidu](/source/Baidu), [Pony.ai](/source/Pony.ai), [Avride](/source/Avride), [Nissan](/source/Nissan), [Rivian](/source/Rivian), [Zoox](/source/Zoox), [Stellantis](/source/Stellantis), [Wayve](/source/Wayve), and [Nvidia](/source/Nvidia) (to use the [Nvidia Drive](/source/Nvidia_Drive) software).[3][4][5][6]

## History

For a chronological guide, see [Timeline of Uber](/source/Timeline_of_Uber).

[Travis Kalanick](/source/Travis_Kalanick), former CEO of Uber, in 2013

In 2009, [Garrett Camp](/source/Garrett_Camp), a co-founder of [StumbleUpon](/source/StumbleUpon), came up with the idea to create Uber to make it easier and cheaper to procure direct transportation. Camp and [Travis Kalanick](/source/Travis_Kalanick) had spent $800 hiring a private driver on New Year's Eve, which they deemed excessive, and Camp was also inspired by his difficulty in finding a [taxi](/source/Taxi) on a snowy night in Paris.[7][8] The prototype of the [mobile app](/source/Mobile_app) was built by Camp and his friends, Oscar Salazar and Conrad Whelan, with Kalanick as the "mega advisor" to the company.[8]

In February 2010, [Ryan Graves](/source/Ryan_Graves_(businessman)) became the first Uber employee; he was named [chief executive officer](/source/Chief_executive_officer) (CEO) in May 2010.[9] In December 2010, Kalanick succeeded Graves as CEO and Graves became the [chief operating officer](/source/Chief_operating_officer).[10]

Following a beta launch in May 2010, Uber's services and mobile app launched publicly in San Francisco in 2011.[11][12] Originally, the application only allowed users to hail a black luxury car and the price was approximately 1.5 times that of a taxi.[13][14] In 2011, the company changed its name from *UberCab* to *Uber* after complaints from San Francisco taxicab operators.[15] Kalanick believed that in addition to efficiency, Uber offered elegance because all drivers had fancy black cars. He did not feel that regular cars driven by non-professional drivers would be attractive. Kalanick and his [angel investor](/source/Angel_investor) [Jason Calacanis](/source/Jason_Calacanis) publicly stated in podcasts that the world's first rideshare company (Wingz) was illegal and would not work.[16][17]

The company's early hires included a nuclear physicist, a [computational neuroscientist](/source/Computational_neuroscientist), and a machinery expert who worked on predicting arrival times for Uber's cars more accurately than [Google APIs](/source/Google_APIs).[7][18] In April 2012, Uber launched a service in Chicago, whereby users were able to request a regular taxi or an Uber driver via its mobile app.[19][20]

In July 2012, Uber introduced UberX, a cheaper option that allowed drivers to use non-luxury vehicles, but still subject to having commercial licenses.[21][22]

In April 2013, after [Wingz](/source/Wingz_(company)), [Lyft](/source/Lyft), and [Sidecar](/source/Sidecar_(company)) obtained licenses to legally operate as rideshare companies, Uber announced that it was going to adopt this model and add regular drivers with personal vehicles to the UberX platform instead of only commercially-licensed vehicles, subject to a background check, insurance, registration, and vehicle standards.[23][24][25] Former Uber executive Andrew Chen and [Sidecar](/source/Sidecar_(company)) co-founder [Sunil Paul](/source/Sunil_Paul) credit the volunteer- and donation-based LGBTQ rideshare service [Homobiles](/source/Homobiles) as their inspiration for enabling regular drivers to offer rideshares.[26][27]. By December 2013, Uber operated in 65 cities.[28]

In December 2013, *[USA Today](/source/USA_Today)* named Uber its tech company of the year.[29]

In August 2014, Uber launched a [shared transport](/source/Shared_transport) service in the [San Francisco Bay Area](/source/San_Francisco_Bay_Area)[30][31] and launched [Uber Eats](/source/Uber_Eats), a [food delivery](/source/Food_delivery) service.[32][33]

In August 2016, facing tough competition, Uber sold its operations in China to [DiDi](/source/DiDi) in exchange for an 18% stake in DiDi.[34] DiDi agreed to invest $1 billion in Uber.[35] Uber had started operations in China in 2014, under the name 优步 (Yōubù).[36]

In 2016, Uber acquired [Ottomotto](/source/Ottomotto), a [self-driving truck](/source/Self-driving_truck) company founded by [Anthony Levandowski](/source/Anthony_Levandowski), for $625 million. Levandowski, previously employed by [Waymo](/source/Waymo), allegedly founded Ottomotto using trade secrets he stole from Waymo. Uber settled a lawsuit regarding the use of such intellectual property and reached a deal to use Waymo's technology for its [freight transport](/source/Freight_transport) operations.[37][38]

In December 2016, Uber acquired Geometric Intelligence and its 15-person staff, which became "Uber AI", a division for researching [artificial intelligence](/source/Artificial_intelligence) and [machine learning](/source/Machine_learning).[39] Uber AI was shut down in May 2020.[40]

In August 2017, [Dara Khosrowshahi](/source/Dara_Khosrowshahi), the former CEO of [Expedia Group](/source/Expedia_Group), replaced Kalanick as CEO.[41][42] Earlier in March 2015, as CEO of [Expedia Group](/source/Expedia_Group), Khosrowshahi had led a multimillion equity investment in [Wingz, Inc.](/source/Wingz%2C_Inc.), the first ridesharing company in the world.[43][44]

In July 2017, Uber received a five-star privacy rating from the [Electronic Frontier Foundation](/source/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation),[45] but was harshly criticized by the group in September 2017 for a controversial policy of tracking customers' locations even after a ride ended, forcing the company to reverse its policy.[46]

In February 2018, Uber combined its operations in [Russia](/source/Russia), [Armenia](/source/Armenia), [Azerbaijan](/source/Azerbaijan), [Belarus](/source/Belarus), [Georgia](/source/Georgia_(country)) and [Kazakhstan](/source/Kazakhstan) with those of [Yandex Taxi](/source/Yandex_Taxi) and invested $225 million in the venture.[47] In March 2018, Uber merged its services in [Southeast Asia](/source/Southeast_Asia) with those of [Grab](/source/Grab_(company)) in exchange for a 27.5% ownership stake in Grab.[48][49][50][51]

Between May 2018 and November 2018, Uber offered Uber Rent powered by [Getaround](/source/Getaround), a [peer-to-peer carsharing](/source/Peer-to-peer_carsharing) service available to some users in San Francisco.[52]

In November 2018, Uber became a gold member of the [Linux Foundation](/source/Linux_Foundation).[53][54]

In 2018, Uber formed a partnership with Autzu, a San Francisco-based ridesharing company. This collaboration provides Uber drivers with the opportunity to rent electric [Tesla](/source/Tesla%2C_Inc.) on an hourly basis.[55][56][57]

In May 2019, Uber became a [public company](/source/Public_company) via an [initial public offering](/source/Initial_public_offering).[58]

In the summer of 2019, Uber announced layoffs of 8% of its staff and eliminated the position of [COO](/source/Chief_operating_officer) [Barney Harford](/source/Barney_Harford).[60]

In October 2019, Uber acquired 53% of Cornershop, a provider of grocery delivery services primarily in Latin America.[61][62] In June 2021, it acquired the remaining 47% interest in Cornershop for 29 million shares of Uber.[63]

After [California Assembly Bill 5 (2019)](/source/California_Assembly_Bill_5_(2019)) was introduced, Uber announced that it would not comply with the law, then engaged lobbyists and mounted a public opinion campaign to overturn it via a ballot.[64][65]

Between October 2019 and May 2020, Uber offered Uber Works, a mobile app connecting workers who wanted temporary jobs with businesses in [Chicago](/source/Chicago) and Miami.[66][67][68]

In January 2020, Uber acquired [Careem](/source/Careem) for $3.1 billion[69] and sold its Indian Uber Eats operations to [Zomato](/source/Zomato).[70]

Also in January 2020, Uber tested a feature that enabled drivers at the Santa Barbara, Sacramento, and Palm Springs airports to set fares based on a multiple of Uber's rates.[71]

In May 2020, during the [COVID-19 pandemic](/source/COVID-19_pandemic), Uber announced layoffs of over 14% of its workforce.[72][68]

In June 2020, in its first [software as a service](/source/Software_as_a_service) partnership, Uber announced that it would manage the on-demand high-occupancy vehicle fleet for [Marin Transit](/source/Marin_Transit), a public bus agency in [Marin County, California](/source/Marin_County%2C_California).[73]

In September 2020, Uber committed to [carbon neutrality](/source/Carbon_neutrality) globally by 2040, and required that, by 2030, in most countries, rides must be offered exclusively in [electric vehicles](/source/Electric_vehicle).[74][75][76]

In December 2020, Uber acquired [Postmates](/source/Postmates) for $2.65 billion.[77][78][79]

In January 2021, Uber Advanced Technologies Group (ATG), a joint venture minority-owned by [SoftBank Vision Fund](/source/SoftBank_Vision_Fund), [Toyota](/source/Toyota), and [Denso](/source/Denso) that was developing [self-driving cars](/source/Self-driving_car), was sold to [Aurora Innovation](/source/Aurora_Innovation) for $4 billion in equity and Uber invested $400 million into Aurora.[82][83]

In March 2021, the company moved to a new headquarters on [Third Street](/source/Third_Street_(San_Francisco)) in [Mission Bay, San Francisco](/source/Mission_Bay%2C_San_Francisco), consisting of several 6- and 11-story buildings connected by bridges and walkways.[84]

## Legal and regulatory issues

### Operating without permission

While it was expanding, Uber was accused of commencing operations in a city based on a loose interpretation of local regulations or by ignoring them completely and then using [lobbying](/source/Lobbying) to change regulations.[64] In 2016, Uber was fined $11.4 million for operating in Pennsylvania without permission.[101]

### Legal cases by taxi companies and taxi drivers

Taxi companies sued Uber in Boston, alleging that Uber acted unlawfully in the years prior to ride-sharing regulations being implemented in the city; courts ruled in favor of Uber.[102]

In the U.S., although some courts did find that Uber intentionally violated taxi rules, Uber prevailed in every case, including the only case to proceed to trial.[103] Anoush Cab, Inc. v. Uber Technologies, Inc., No. 19-2001 (1st Cir. 2021) alleged that Uber caused asset devaluation by competing unfairly; the trial resulted in a full verdict for Uber.[104]

Flywheel, the largest operator of taxis in San Francisco, sued Uber in 2016, alleging [antitrust](/source/Antitrust) violations and [predatory pricing](/source/Predatory_pricing).[105] In 2021, a federal judge threw out the bulk of the case and Uber settled the remainder of the case by integrating Flywheel taxis into its mobile app.[106]

In 2019, 8,000 taxi drivers, represented by law firm [Maurice Blackburn](/source/Maurice_Blackburn_(law_firm)), filed a [class action](/source/Class_action) lawsuit against Uber in Australia alleging [illegal taxi operations](/source/Illegal_taxi_operation), loss of income and loss of value of taxi and/or hire car licenses. Uber agreed to settle the case by paying AU$271.8 million.[107][108]

### Classification of drivers as gig workers

This section is [transcluded](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Transclusion) from [Ridesharing company](/source/Ridesharing_company). ([edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ridesharing_company&action=edit) | [history](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ridesharing_company&action=history))

Unless otherwise required by law, ridesharing companies have [classified](/source/Independent_contractor-employee_distinction_in_the_United_States) drivers as [independent contractors](/source/Independent_contractor) and not employees under [employment law](/source/Employment_law), arguing that they receive [flextime](/source/Flextime) not generally received by employees. This classification has been challenged legally since it affects taxation, [minimum wage](/source/Minimum_wage) requirements, [working time](/source/Working_time), [paid time off](/source/Paid_time_off), [employee benefits](/source/Employee_benefits), [unemployment benefits](/source/Unemployment_benefits), and [overtime](/source/Overtime) benefits.[109]

Jurisdictions in which drivers must receive the classification of "employees" include the United Kingdom (after the case of *[Aslam v Uber BV](/source/Aslam_v_Uber_BV)* which was decided by the [Supreme Court of the United Kingdom](/source/Supreme_Court_of_the_United_Kingdom)),[110][111] [New Zealand](/source/New_Zealand),[112][113] [Switzerland](/source/Switzerland),[114] [New Jersey](/source/New_Jersey),[115] and the [Netherlands](/source/Netherlands).[116][117] [California Assembly Bill 5 (2019)](/source/California_Assembly_Bill_5_(2019)) was passed to force drivers to be classified as employees in [California](/source/California), although ridesharing companies received an exemption by [2020 California Proposition 22](/source/2020_California_Proposition_22), a ballot [initiative](/source/Popular_initiative).[118] Ridesharing companies spent tens of millions of dollars on the campaign.[119][120] In 2025, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed AB 1340 into law, which gave rideshare drivers the right to collectively bargain with rideshare companies despite their classification as independent contractors rather than employees.[121]

In some jurisdictions, laws were passed to guarantee drivers a minimum wage before and after expenses as well as paid time off and insurance benefits.[122][123]

### Accusations of misleading drivers

Uber has paid to settle accusations of having misled drivers about potential earnings[124][125][126] and shortchanging drivers.[127][128][129][130]

### Driver control over fares

In the United States, drivers do not have any control over the fares they charge. A lawsuit filed in California, Gill et al. v. Uber Technologies, Inc. et al., alleged that this is a violation of the [Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890](/source/Sherman_Antitrust_Act_of_1890). The lawsuit was denied [class action](/source/Class_action) status; a judge forced each plaintiff to go to [arbitration](/source/Arbitration) individually. The case was dropped in March 2024.[131][132]

### Discrimination against a blind customer

In April 2021, an arbitrator ruled against Uber in a case involving Lisa Irving, a blind American customer with a guide dog who was denied rides on 14 separate occasions. Uber was ordered to pay [US$](/source/United_States_dollar)1.1 million, reflecting $324,000 in damages and more than $800,000 in attorney fees and court costs.[133]

### Greyball

In March 2017, an investigation by *[The New York Times](/source/The_New_York_Times)* revealed that Uber developed a software tool called "Greyball" to avoid giving rides to known law enforcement officers in areas where its service was illegal such as in [Portland, Oregon](/source/Portland%2C_Oregon), [Australia](/source/Australia), [South Korea](/source/South_Korea), and [China](/source/China), leading to government inquiries. The tool identified government officials using [geofencing](/source/Geofencing), mining credit card databases, identifying devices, and searches of social media.[134][135][136] While at first, Uber stated that it only used the tool to identify riders that violated its [terms of service](/source/Terms_of_service), after investigations by [Portland, Oregon](/source/Portland%2C_Oregon),[137][138][139] and the [United States Department of Justice](/source/United_States_Department_of_Justice),[140][141][142] Uber admitted to using the tool to skirt local regulations and promised not to use the tool for that purpose.[143][144] The use of Greyball in London was cited by [Transport for London](/source/Transport_for_London) as one of the reasons for its decision not to renew Uber's private hire operator licence in September 2017.[145][146][147]

### Ripley - kill switch

A January 2018 report by [Bloomberg News](/source/Bloomberg_News) stated that Uber routinely used a "panic button" system, codenamed "Ripley", that locked, powered off and changed passwords on staff computers when those offices were subjected to government raids.[148] Uber allegedly used this button at least 24 times, from spring 2015 until late 2016.[149][150]

The company claimed the kill switches were not intended to obstruct justice, but rather to protect [intellectual property](/source/Intellectual_property), customer privacy, and due process and that no data was permanently deleted, and was available for authorities to obtain later.[151]

### Counter-intelligence research on class action plaintiffs

In 2016, Uber hired Ergo, a global security consulting firm, to secretly investigate plaintiffs involved in a class action lawsuit. Ergo operatives posed as acquaintances of the plaintiff's counsel and tried to contact their associates to obtain information. As a result, the judge threw out evidence that was obtained in a fraudulent manner.[152][153]

### Insufficient accessibility

According to a lawsuit filed in 2018, not enough Uber drivers own a [wheelchair accessible vans](/source/Wheelchair_accessible_van) (WAV), in violation of accessibility laws.[154]

### Refusal to transport service animals

While drivers are required to transport service animals, drivers have been criticized for refusal to transport service animals, which, in the United States, is in violation of the [Americans with Disabilities Act](/source/Americans_with_Disabilities_Act). In 2021, an arbitrator awarded $1.1 million to a visually impaired passenger who travels with a [guide dog](/source/Guide_dog) because she was denied Uber rides 14 separate times.[155]

### Sexual harassment settlement (2017)

On February 19, 2017, former Uber engineer [Susan Fowler](/source/Susan_Fowler) published on her website that she was propositioned for sex by a manager and subsequently threatened with [termination of employment](/source/Termination_of_employment) by another manager if she continued to report the incident. Travis Kalanick, the CEO at the time, was allegedly aware of the complaint.[156][157] On February 27, 2017, [Amit Singhal](/source/Amit_Singhal), Uber's Senior Vice President of Engineering, was forced to resign after he failed to disclose a [sexual harassment](/source/Sexual_harassment) claim against him that occurred while he served as Vice President of [Google Search](/source/Google_Search).[158] After investigations led by former attorney general [Eric Holder](/source/Eric_Holder) and [Arianna Huffington](/source/Arianna_Huffington), a member of Uber's [board of directors](/source/Board_of_directors),[159] in June 2017, Uber fired over 20 employees.[160][161] Kalanick took an indefinite leave of absence but, under pressure from investors, he resigned as CEO a week later.[162][163] Also departing the company in June 2017 was [Emil Michael](/source/Emil_Michael), a senior vice president who suggested that Uber hire a team of opposition researchers and journalists, with a million-dollar budget, to "dig up dirt" on the personal lives and backgrounds of journalists who reported negatively on Uber, specifically targeting [Sarah Lacy](/source/Sarah_Lacy), editor of [PandoDaily](/source/PandoDaily), who, in an article published in October 2014, accused Uber of [sexism](/source/Sexism) and [misogyny](/source/Misogyny) in its advertising.[164][165][166][167][168][169] In August 2018, Uber agreed to pay a total of $7 million to settle claims of gender discrimination, harassment, and hostile work environment, with 480 employees and former employees receiving $10,700 each and 56 of those employees and former employees receiving an additional $33,900 each.[170] In December 2019, Kalanick resigned from the [board of directors](/source/Board_of_directors) of the company and sold his shares.[171][172][173][174]

### Illegal concealment of data breaches

In 2020, the [US Department of Justice](/source/US_Department_of_Justice) announced criminal charges against former Chief Security Officer [Joe Sullivan](/source/Joe_Sullivan_(Internet_security_expert)) for [obstruction of justice](/source/Obstruction_of_justice). The criminal complaint said Joe Sullivan arranged with Travis Kalanick's knowledge, to pay a ransom for the 2016 data breach as a "bug bounty" to conceal its true nature, and for the hackers to falsify non-disclosure agreements to say they had not obtained any data.[175]

### Privacy fines

In January 2024, Uber was fined €10 million by the [Dutch Data Protection Authority](/source/Dutch_Data_Protection_Authority) for violating privacy regulations pertaining to the personal data of its drivers. The authority determined that Uber had failed to provide clear information in its terms and conditions regarding the duration for which it retained drivers' personal data, as well as the measures taken to secure this data when transmitting it to undisclosed entities outside the [European Economic Area](/source/European_Economic_Area).[176]

In August 2024, Uber was fined €290 million by the [Dutch Data Protection Authority](/source/Dutch_Data_Protection_Authority) for transferring the personal data of European drivers to US servers in breach of the [GDPR](/source/General_Data_Protection_Regulation).[177]

### Deceptive billing practices

In April 2025, the [Federal Trade Commission](/source/Federal_Trade_Commission) (FTC) sued Uber, alleging that it enrolled some of its customers in the $9.99 monthly Uber One service without their consent, and used unlawful tactics to make cancellation difficult for consumers.[178] In December 2025, 21 US states and [Washington, D.C](/source/Washington%2C_D.C.). joined the FTC in filing an amended complaint seeking civil penalties against Uber for allegedly violating both state laws and the federal [Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act](/source/Restore_Online_Shoppers'_Confidence_Act).[179]

### Passenger safety and sexual assault lawsuits (2024)

In February 2024, a multidistrict litigation (MDL) was established in the Northern District of California against Uber Technologies, Inc., consolidating numerous claims from among the more than 3,000 sexual assault lawsuits filed against the company in state and federal courts.[180] These lawsuits allege Uber prioritized growth over safety by using inadequate background checks, skipping in-person driver vetting, and failing to invest in preventive measures such as cameras or monitoring systems.[181] It also claims Uber knowingly put vulnerable passengers, such as intoxicated women, at risk through its marketing and business practices. The litigation seeks injunctive relief, damages and changes to Uber's safety policies. Some survivors have chosen to pursue justice in state courts outside of the MDL, seeking faster resolutions and a more individualized approach.[182]

### Wage theft claims

In 2020, 5,000 drivers filed wage and hour claims with the California labour commission office against Uber and [Lyft](/source/Lyft), alleging they were misclassified as independent contractors. [Rideshare Drivers United](/source/Rideshare_Drivers_United_(California)) in California claimed that at least 250,000 individual rideshare drivers in California who drove for the apps between 2016 and 2020 are estimated to be eligible for the settlement for wage theft claims of tens of billions of dollars.[183]

### Data breaches and related fines

On February 27, 2015, Uber admitted that it had suffered a [data breach](/source/Data_breach) more than nine months prior. Names and license plate information from approximately 50,000 drivers were inadvertently disclosed.[184] Uber discovered this leak in September 2014, but waited more than five months to notify the affected individuals.[185]

An announcement in November 2017 revealed that in 2016, a separate data breach had disclosed the personal information of 600,000 drivers and 57 million customers. This data included names, email addresses, phone numbers, and drivers' license information. Hackers used employees' usernames and passwords that had been compromised in previous breaches (a "[credential stuffing](/source/Credential_stuffing)" method) to gain access to a private [GitHub](/source/GitHub) repository used by Uber's developers. The hackers located credentials for the company's [Amazon Web Services](/source/Amazon_Web_Services) datastore in the repository files, and were able to obtain access to the account records of users and drivers, as well as other data contained in over 100 [Amazon S3](/source/Amazon_S3) buckets. Uber paid a $100,000 ransom to the hackers on the promise they would delete the stolen data.[186][187] Uber was subsequently criticized for concealing this data breach.[188] Dara Khosrowshahi publicly apologized.[189][190] In September 2018, in the largest multi-state settlement of a data breach, Uber paid $148 million to the [Federal Trade Commission](/source/Federal_Trade_Commission), and admitted that internal access to consumers' personal information was closely monitored on an ongoing basis was false, and stated that it had failed to live up to its promise to provide reasonable security for consumer data.[191] In November 2018, Uber's British divisions were fined £385,000 (reduced to £308,000) by the [Information Commissioner's Office](/source/Information_Commissioner's_Office).[192]

On September 15, 2022, Uber discovered a security breach of its internal network by a [hacker](/source/Hacker) that utilized [social engineering](/source/Social_engineering_(security)) to obtain an employee's credentials and gain access to the company's [VPN](/source/VPN) and [intranet](/source/Intranet). The company said that no sensitive data had been compromised.[193][194]

By the end of the week, Henley was on the phone with a corporate research firm called Ergo, also known as Global Precision Research LLC, asking for help with "a sensitive, very under-the-radar investigation." After a few emails, Henley worked out the terms of the deal with an Ergo executive named Todd Egeland. It would be a "level two" investigation, the middle of the three levels of work offered by Ergo. It would be drawn from seven source interviews conducted over the course of 10 days, for which Uber would pay $19,500. As with any Ergo investigation, the confidentiality of the client was paramount, and sources were never meant to know who was paying for the research. "We do quite a bit of this work for law firms," Egeland reassured him. (Ergo did not respond to requests for comment.)
