Uber Streams Teen Rides Via Driver Camera, With No Co-Passenger Opt-Out

Uber launched live video streaming for teen account rides on August 25, 2026, using the driver's selfie camera. The feature offers no opt-out for other passengers traveling with the teen. It is rolling out in nine markets including Rhode Island, a two-party consent state. Uber described the stream as encrypted but did not confirm end-to-end encryption.
