        That may  be so, but I doubt the gov't can get as much track
        information from all over the world as they get directly from
        the 'centralized' uber servers.


        Anyway, the fact that uber is yet another cover for
        US spying is not the only reason why uber is a piece of
        shit. I mentioned other reasons. In some ways uber is even more
        hostile to a free market than the 'official'
        state-licenced(like uber) taxi mafia.
