2017年年末的时候,Uber才爆出来一年前黑客就曾盗取过Uber云端存储的大量用户个人信息。这样的危机,Uber处理起来也是朴素又无奈...结合Uber之前出现过的各种危机,不妨试想一下网约车产业会普遍存在什么潜在问题。一起来听听这篇CNN Money的新闻片段吧:
Uber’s Massive Hack: What We Know
Uber's disclosure that hackers accessed the personal information of 57 million riders and drivers last year, a breach it didn't disclose publicly until Tuesday, adds new potential legal woes for the already troubled company.
At the time of the breach, Uber paid hackers $100,000 to destroy the data and did not tell regulators or users that their information was stolen.
Uber is trying to salvage its reputation following a number of high-profile controversies,including using software called Greyball to evade regulators, a court battle over allegedly stolen secrets from Google's self-driving car division, and a slew of complaints regarding sexual harassment and toxic company culture.
