If you use a smart phone, there is probably not much difference in ability to NSA location track and using uber.
Any cellphone, not just smartphones.
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.
Anyone tried Arcade City yet? I have it installed, but the only time I've needed a ride since I heard of it, I had to catch a flight and wasn't willing to risk using a new service in an unfamiliar city.
