That's why I don't understand why Will Evans writes: " I'd love to apologize to Uber [...], but on the other hand I understand why they banned me."

I created the hack to benefit others and to create and visualise some pretty cool data.
I know why Uber banned me, they probably don't want people knowing how to access their data. This is not a reason I approve of but I can see their reasoning.
