This and many absurd comments by Uber executive led me to delete my Uber account. Also, deleting your account is really difficult with Uber.
Not for me, there was a form on the site I think or an email, email reply from the local Uber rep (Ireland, we are small enough to have "a" local Uber rep) asking why I was leaving which gave me a chance to explain my reasons and then we were done.
We're lucky enough here that Uber is the newcomer, Hailo pretty dominant/less creepy.
