>Rideshare company Uber is threatening to withdraw service from the state if a rideshare bill passes at the Colorado State Capitol. For some time, rideshare drivers like David Krouse said they are happy feel happy providing a vital service to the Denver community despite some minor inconveniences they may face with riders. "It's been mostly fine, I've had a few people who are paranoid or at times disruptive or problematic," said Krouse. Even during the times when riders may become problematic during his rides, he feels as though applications like Uber and Lyft have the resources to make sure he and his drivers feel safe. "As a driver, what you can do is call ADT," said Krouse. "They literally put a live person on the phone, and they ask, 'Do you need medical or emergency, do you need the police?'"

it's very weird that the government now wants to mandate that a major corporation is recording us.

Where have you been hiding?

We've asked the public utilities commission, which is the primary regulator for ride share companies in Colorado, to take the lead on establishing rules on data retention, who can access it, when they can access it, how long the data should be stored, etc

Here we go again. Trusting the government to do the right thing. That hasn't been working out too well lately.
