Uber a primit o amendă GDPR de 825 milioane EUR pentru suspendarea conturilor unor șoferi, în Olanda - StartupCafe

The Dutch Data Protection Authority fined Uber €825 million for automating driver account suspensions without proper human intervention, violating GDPR regulations. This is the second-largest GDPR fine to date. The investigation, initiated by a complaint in France, revealed that Uber's systems made significant decisions affecting drivers' incomes without human evaluation. Uber contests the allegations, claiming it has not automated permanent deactivations and that drivers can appeal suspensions. The fine was calculated based on Uber's projected revenue for 2025, raising concerns about the implications for companies using algorithms in employee management. A Swiss digital rights organization is preparing a collective action for affected drivers.
