The UK’s data protection regulator has issued Uber with a £385,000 fine for failing to protect more than 2.5 million British customers’ data during a massive global hack in 2016.

The ride-hailing giant faced widespread criticism last year after it revealed it had paid the hackers $100,000 (£78,299) to delete the data in a bid to cover up the breach, which exposed 52 million people’s data worldwide.
