Ladybird won at the oscars. That’s about poor people.

I ran these numbers when I had access to the data. Varies by region but this number is still much too low. Even if 30c/mile in costs is correct the hourly is still way off

I worked there. I was an engineer and definitely needed access to these data. Fraud and abuse is constantly evolving and touches every part of the business. Everything was audited and I never saw or heard of a single abuse of access. Privacy was talked about seriously at onboarding and other trainings. I have no doubt if somebody was caught abusing this they’d be fired.
