This is alleged “with evidence”. I understand you want more evidence. It’s alleged and now others can try to simulate.

For what it’s worth, I was able to simulate prices ranges of $50-130 for the same ride with a few friends when we were all standing next to each other. Any new phone shows a low price first, if you search again the price goes up nearly 50%.

So simulating the evidence here might be hard based on other algorithms Uber uses
