That's terrifying.
Thanks to Uber now requiring location services on Always instead of just when hailing a car, my and others' personal location history even outside of Uber usage could have been compromised. Sweet.

To be fair, you were kind of a fool if you actually let Uber have your location at all times. As soon as they announced that I blocked Uber from my location. I only allow it when I take an Uber (which is almost never now).
Sometimes I'm in a rush and forget to turn it back to Never.
That doesn't make me a fool, it makes me human. Don't be a jerk. It's a dark pattern for a reason.
If you only sometimes forget, then that's not letting them have your location at all times, and you weren't called a fool.
Not a fool but ...
