      This was during the intense Uber vs Lyft period where Uber was spamming Lyft rides to wreck their systems.

      An ex-Lyft engineer confirmed that there are bans for Uber employees (cause he wrote part of it), but not sure if it's active today.

      This is true. We used to actively ban users on Uber's WIFI networks that we detected on our networks.

      Newer Lyft employees don't understand how fierce the competition was and how hard Uber tried to poach data from Lyft.

      At one point we caught them trying to hack our systems, so yes we were a little paranoid about potential Uber employees visiting us.
