Legal status of Uber's service
Uber Technologies Inc, an American international transportation network company, is the subject of ongoing protests and legal action from taxi drivers, taxi companies, and governments around the world. Those who oppose Uber argue that the company creates unfair competition to taxis because the company does not pay taxes or licensing fees; that it endangers passengers; that drivers are untrained, unlicensed and uninsured; and in general, that the company breaks the law.
Uber is involved in at least 173 lawsuits. As of mid-2015, protests had been staged in Germany, Spain, France, and England, among other nations, and dangerous incidents involving passengers have been documented. Uber executives were arrested in France in June 2015. In December 2014, Uber was banned in Spain and in two cities in India. Uber continues to be involved in disputes with several governmental bodies, including local governments in the U.S. and Australia.
Governments have been largely unable to stop Uber's operations in their jurisdictions because its operations are conducted primarily over the Internet. In addition, Uber is said to use extremely aggressive tactics such as bullying and hiring investigators to "dig up dirt" on journalists who criticize them. Portland, Oregon's transportation commissioner called Uber management "a bunch of thugs". A commissioner in Virginia who opposed Uber was flooded with emails and calls after Uber distributed his contact information to all of its users in the state.
==Background==
Uber is an app-based transportation network and taxi company headquartered in San Francisco, California, which operates in cities in many countries. The company uses a smartphone application to receive ride requests and then sends these trip requests to their drivers.
