Uber Class Action Lawsuit for Data Breach

A Portland Uber driver is the named plaintiff in a class action lawsuit against Uber for a 2014 data breach.

The breach disclosed personal information for 50,000 Uber drivers. The lawsuit alleges that Uber took 5 months to disclose the data breach, which violates California law. California statutes require employers to protect the personal information of employees.

Antman v. Uber Technologies Inc, U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, No. 15-1175.
