Sometimes innovation requires breaking rules. Uber wouldn't have had the success it's had if it had gone through "proper" channels. While it made them successful, I'd argue that it also benefited consumers.
- saalweachter 11y ago"It also benefited consumers" is not a get out of jail free card. If I break into warehouses, steal merchandise by the truckload, and sell it at a tenth the price, that also benefits my consumers.
- icebraining 11y agoWho says it should be a "get out of jail free card"? I think that's a good approach: someone openly breaks a rule that they think is unfair and/or outdated, and then society can decide whether to re-evaluate the rule or fine them (even into bankruptcy, if they're a company).
