Uber Is Facing Its Biggest PR Challenge Yet

Uber, valued at $17 billion, is popular for its low fares and wide reach but faces criticism from taxi drivers and its own drivers over pay. Recently, Uber faced a major PR challenge when Senior VP Emil Michael suggested investigating journalists critical of the company. This included using Uber's 'God View' to track vehicles, raising privacy concerns. CEO Travis Kalanick condemned Michael's comments, emphasizing they don't reflect Uber's values.
