    This is an inaccurate headline. The context around the pictured Terms of Service is:

    > Uber may, in Uber's sole discretion, permit you from time to time to submit, upload, publish or otherwise make available to Uber through the Services textual, audio, and/or visual content and information, including commentary and feedback related to the Services, initiation of support requests, and submission of entries for competitions and promotions ("User Content").

    It isn't giving an irrevocable license to use your account data (i.e. location data, payment, etc.), but data submitted that falls under the User Content category above. And they actually limit it to three categories feedback, support requests, and contests/promotions.
