The alleged cheater, whose name was not disclosed in court documents obtained by the paper, blamed a "glitch" in the app for outing him. The man claimed he once logged into his Uber account on his wife's iPhone, but even after he logged out, her device continued to receive push notifications from his profile. Every time he took an extracurricular love trip, he claims she was pinged, which led her to confront him about the alleged affair and their eventual divorce. 。Le Figaro 。
