I can't even fault Uber for doing this. Governments are not friendly. They have seized billion dollar factories for their own use. I only imagine a trivial tax problem would give a corrupt government the opportunity to seize assets.
How can you not fault Uber for this? There is a rule of law in this country that has to be observed. Furthermore, it clearly shows intent to cover up illegal activities.
Uber doesn't only operate in that country. When you operate at the scale and international scope that uber does, economic warfare, espionage, and corrupt governments are a real thing.
I hate Uber but I don't think this is something to really fault them on.
