Exactly.

It's an algorithmic game, and your one job is to fly under the radar screen.

No mask, OK, I'll drive you, then one star you with no reason shown, so I don't see your pings again.
You are allowed to cancel and select "no mask" with no threat of being rated by the customer. Now if you're an idiot you annoy the customer before the ride starts about not wearing a mask and then you still give them a ride and then they 1 Star you for bothering about the mask. In that situation you will eventually get deactivated.

Yes I am aware of that, however, many of these @@@@@@@@ pull their mask down to their chin in the middle of the ride. When I ask them VERY POLITELY to pull it over their nose they often will rate a 1. I even tell them I have to be very careful because I have a type one diabetic son and I visit my 85 year old Mother. Uber has received my Dashcam of this and the way they hide the fact they do not care about the spread of Covid is to say " we have now way to know the rider rated you a 1 because you asked them to pull up the mask." LMFAO
Oh yeah that sucks when they enter the vehicle with it on but then take it off during the trip. Ok I understand what you mean. At that point you'd be better off not saying anything because people who do that are often the ones who use the Rating system as a Bullying mechanism.

Yes but I have ZERO tolerance because of my age and vulnerable family members at home that I may infect. I live driving and talking to customers and with my windows cracked open and masks worn properly I feel safe.
Well you gotta accept the fact that there are people who hate wearing a mask and take it out on you for enforcing the rule. And Uber/Lyft or any of the other "gig" app out there don't not have your best interest. They have over-saturated the streets with drivers to the point where it's more cost effective to simply deactivate them rather than investigate each and every complaint.
