I never even considered that this was being done. Thankfully I rarely use those services.
Uninstalled uber last week when it told me to take a photo of my ID to ride. Next week I'll hear about some Brazilian hacker that has 100 million US IDs from an uber leak. No thanks. Lyft will probably do the same thing soon, and I'll unceremoniously dump their ass too.
"Brazil" 💀
