Controversies involving Uber include various unethical practices such as aggressive lobbying and ignoring and evading local regulations. Ridesharing companies are regulated in many jurisdictions and the Uber platform is not available in several countries where the company is not able or willing to comply with regulations. Ridesharing companies have disrupted taxicab businesses and allegedly caused an increase in traffic congestion. Like other ridesharing companies, Uber classifies its drivers as gig workers and independent contractors, where allowable, which is the subject of legal action in several jurisdictions. It has operations in approximately 70 countries and 10,500 cities and, with 131 million monthly active users and 5.4 million active drivers and couriers worldwide, it generates an average of 23 million trips per day. Uber sets fares, which vary using a dynamic pricing model based on local supply and demand at the time of the booking and are quoted to the customer in advance, and receives a commission from each booking. ( Uber), based in San Francisco, provides mobility as a service/ ride-hailing (48% of revenues), food delivery/ package delivery/ couriers via Uber Eats and Postmates (34% of revenues), and freight transport (18% of revenues).
