What's that you say? You only tracked the journalist because she was late for a meeting with you? Well why didn't you say so? That's totally okay! :rolleyes:

The revelation came in response to a series of questions related to the company's privacy policies posed to Uber CEO Travis Kalanick last month by Sen. Al Franken. The Minnesota Democrat raised his concerns after it was revealed that an employee twice used a feature known as "God View" to track a BuzzFeed reporter on the service without her knowledge.

Looks like some lonely coder geek at Uber has found their next fantasy girlfriend/stalker victim. What's next, turning on device we cam's remotely, so he can start his creepy montage photo shrine?
 
Oh, this involves a woman. In before gamergate rant about genders, social justice-themed insults, party politics, and something about skinny jeans are ending the world as we know it.

Uber is also a great case study in how Libertarian philosophies in practice is basically just privatized fascism.
 
I keep waiting to see the article about Uber drivers being lured to secluded pickup locations and getting carjacked. Then finding out their insurance won't cover the lost vehicle because they were using their vehicle commercially.

Why? I think some guys can pull off that look pretty well and it compliments their other clothes if they dress properly. It really gets boring seeing every guy wearing some dumb boring fat man jeans, a camo or flannel shirt, and cowboy boots. I think variety is good and putting some thought into a nice clothing combination makes that person stand out as caring a little about how they appear and its far more approchable than the bearded outdoors creep with the tons of guns and a drinking problem.
