The company noted that names and addresses of registered businesses are posted online, available to commercial marketers and potential harassers, unless drivers go to the trouble of using business names and post office boxes. Uber “failed to show that the driver information requested constitutes a protected trade secret or that disclosure would violate drivers’ privacy or due process rights,” Ulmer said, affirming a tentative ruling he had issued Wednesday. Uber has not objected to the city’s requirement of business licenses for its drivers, whom it considers independent contractors rather than employees. [...] December, Uber, joined by its main rival, Lyft, had provided Cisneros information on 57,000 drivers, about 20,000 of whom paid the city $91 apiece for annual licenses. Both companies are supporting proposed legislation, SB182 by Sen.
