Uber Releases First-Ever Transparency Report

An anonymous reader writes: On Tuesday, Uber released its first transparency report, an overview of the information that was requested by U.S. regulators and law enforcement in the second half of 2015. The report shows that while Uber is not yet receiving the number or type of requests that non-transport companies do, the data requests affect millions of Uber customers and drivers. According to the report, Uber received 408 requests for information from law enforcement, and 415 from state and federal governments. These requests were complied with approximately 85% of cases, where after review, Uber provided at least some of the data requested. They also responded to 67 requests for information from regulatory bodies and from airports, with data provided on over 11 million riders and 600,000 drivers.
