Judge says Uber should be suspended in California and fined $7.3 million

A California administrative judge ruled that Uber’s license to operate in California will be suspended in 30 days if it doesn’t appeal or start complying with state laws. At issue: Uber has not provided “operational data that is required under the 2013 law that legalized ride-hailing firms.”

An Uber spokeswoman called the decision “deeply disappointing… We will appeal the decision as Uber has already provided substantial amounts of data to the California Public Utilities Commission, information we have provided elsewhere with no complaints. Going further risks compromising the privacy of individual riders as well as driver-partners.”
