A retired Penn professor has been blocking Uber Eats robots for months. This week, she got arrested for it Carolyn Marvin, 78, said she is exercising her First Amendment right to protest — and will do it again. The University of Pennsylvania professor emeritus has made a practice to protest "corporations that displace human delivery workers in order to enrich their own bottom line." #protest #Pennsylvania #robot #Uber

Boycott #Uber. In court filings, Uber's lawyers blamed sexual assault victims, suggesting that such things as what they were wearing, how much they drank, whether they had been unfaithful in relationships or whether they had childhood trauma was to blame for them being assaulted! Uber faces over 4,000 lawsuits "from passengers accusing the company of failing to protect them from sexual violence they said they had suffered during rides." 1/3🧵 #BoycottUber #MyThoughts -- https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/04/business/uber-sexual-assault-lawsuits.html

~"The litigation has revealed a clear pattern: Uber's lawyers scour women's private communications, medical records, therapy notes & other sources for sensitive details, incl. other sexual assaults, childhood abuse & domestic violence. They grill the women about those issues, their sex lives & their behavior on the night of the incident. "In one case, #Uber petitioned a judge to force a woman to turn over details about sexual abuse she experienced as a child..." 2/3🧵 #BoycottUber #MyThoughts

“#Uber has perfected a system of algorithmic pricing that allows it to dangle just enough money in front of drivers to maximize their number on the road, irrespective of how many riders are looking for cars. The fact that they have all the information (while drivers have none) allows them to extract vast amounts of totally unpaid labor from those drivers. And then, once a passenger gets in the car, Uber's informational systems let it pay that driver the absolute minimum they will accept for the ride.” @pluralistic@mamot.fr

Because Uber illegally forced their way into the taxi market, I've never had an Uber pickup. Silo I get warm and fuzzies when I see articles like this confirming what a deplorable corp it is. #Uber
