Uber will pay $148m to US state authorities in a settlement for the 2016 data breach that saw hackers steal information on 57 million people.

The firm covered up the hack – which exposed names, email addresses and phone numbers of drivers and customers – for almost a year. It also attempted to bribe the thieves, offering them $100,000 disguised as a bug bounty to keep quiet.
