If you're Matt Duchene and you're about to hit July 1 and now a bunch of people are calling you a cancer because you roasted your incompetent assistant coach in an Uber, aren't you damaged by that?
Say it's the difference between $6.75M and 6.15 a year. Or even less, say it's 250k or less. That's an expensive Uber.
Again, the camera is there for security. It's not there for the driver to go viral. I'm sure that's not in the Uber terms of service.
Bearing in mind that one should dig two graves before embarking upon a mission of vengeance, they could sue him just to make him bleed financially. Which would be a bit evil.
