Uber, Lyft driver booted after newspaper reveals he was livestreaming passengers
https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/07/uber-lyft-driver-booted-after-newspaper-reveals-he-was-livestreaming-passengers/ DeBeikes also reminded us that Missouri is a "one-party consent" state for the purposes of recording (California, where Uber and Lyft are based, are not, by contrast). The Uber spokeswoman would not answer Ars' question as to whether the company felt that non-consensual livestreaming was allowed. Kate Margolis, a Lyft spokeswoman, sent Ars a similar statement: "All drivers on the Lyft platform are required to follow applicable local laws and regulations, including with regard to the use of any recording device. You can find our policy here on Lyft's safety page." Like DeBeikes, Margolis also would not answer Ars' question about company policy with respect to livestreaming. The "safety page" does not mention the term specifically. - - - RELATED: Uber and Lyft Must Immediately Ban "Peeping Tom" Drivers - https://lauren.vortex.com/2018/07/21/uber-and-lyft-must-immediately-ban-peeping-tom-drivers --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): https://www.vortex.com/lauren Lauren's Blog: https://lauren.vortex.com Google Issues Mailing List: https://vortex.com/google-issues Founder: Network Neutrality Squad: https://www.nnsquad.org PRIVACY Forum: https://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: https://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Google+: https://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list https://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
